Remarks

If a user defined function (UDF) returns a DataTable, the UDF should be able to prepare for execution by running with the ExecuteForPrepare property set to true. To prepare for execution, the UDF should determine the structure of the DataTable needed to be returned, and return an empty DataTable that is structured appropriately.

Example

In the following example, a simple UDF creates a DataTable. If the UDF runs with the ExecuteForPrepare property set to true, the UDF returns with an empty version of the DataTable. If the UDF runs with the ExecuteForPrepare property set to false, the UDF continues, populates the DataTable, and returns the populated DataTable.

[SafeToPrepare(true)]
public System.Data.DataTable GetPreparedTable()
{
    System.Data.DataTable results = new System.Data.DataTable();
    results.Columns.Add("A", typeof(int));
    results.Columns.Add("B", typeof(string));

    if (Context.ExecuteForPrepare)
    {
        // If preparing, return just the schema with no data
        return results;
    }

    //Otherwise return data
    object[] row = new object[2];
    row[0] = 1;
    row[1] = "A";
    results.Rows.Add(row);

    row[0] = 2;
    row[1] = "B";
    results.Rows.Add(row);

    return results;
}
