ProcessOutputBuffer Property
This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.
The ProcessOutputBuffer property returns the contents of the memory used by a Microsoft SQL Server process for output.
Syntax
object
.ProcessOutputBuffer(ProcessID)
Parts
- object
An expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list
- ProcessID
A long integer that identifies a SQL Server process ID
Data Type
String
Modifiable
Read-only
Prototype (C/C++)
HRESULT GetProcessOutputBuffer(
long lProcessID,
SQLDMO_LPBSTR pRetVal);
Note
SQL Distributed Management Objects (SQL-DMO) strings are always returned as OLE BSTR objects. A C/C++ application obtains a reference to the string. The application must release the reference using SysFreeString.
Remarks
For each 16 bytes of data in the process output buffer, ProcessOutputBuffer returns a formatted string consisting of an address, hexadecimal representation of the first 16 bytes of data found at that address, character representation of those 16 bytes, and carriage return/line feed (CRLF) sequence.
