Derives the schema returned from a specified command. The schema indicates the layout of items and blocks in a data reader.

Namespace: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Framework
Assembly: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Framework (in Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Framework.dll)

Parameters

command
Type: System.String

A command for which to derive the schema specific to a data source.

commandType
Type: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Services.SupportEntities.DataCommandType

The type of the command that specifies how to interpret the contents of the command parameter. The command type could either be a value from the DataCommandType enumeration or a custom command type defined by a provider, which can be passed in by forcing a cast from an integer to the DataCommandType enumeration.

parameters
Type: array<Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Services.SupportEntities.IVsDataParameter[]

An array of IVsDataParameter objects representing the command parameters for the specified command type.

Return Value

Type: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Services.SupportEntities.IVsDataReader
An IVsDataReader object. This object provides a forward-only, read-only data stream that describes the layout of items and blocks, that is, the schema, for the reader object returned upon executing the specified command.

Implements

IVsDataCommand.DeriveSchema(String, DataCommandType, array<IVsDataParameter[])

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
ArgumentNullException	The command parameter is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Remarks

The schema of the data reader returned by this method must follow a specific format. For each result that will be returned when you execute the command, there should be a result in the data reader. Each of these results should contain blocks that describe the items that will be returned when you execute the command. The description should contain the following items:

Name (String): the name of the item.
Ordinal (Int32): the position of the item.
UserDataType (String): the user data type of the item (for example, "myType").
NativeDataType (String): the native data type of the item (for example, "nvarchar").
ProviderDataType (Int32): the provider data type of the item (for example, System.Data.SqlDbType.NVarChar).
ProviderDbType (Int32): the generic ADO.NET data type of the item (for example, System.Data.DbType.StringFixedLength).
FrameworkDataType (Type): the framework data type of the item (for example, System.Int32).
Length (Int32): the maximum length of the item, if applicable.
Precision (Int32): the precision of the item, if applicable.
Scale (Int32): the scale of the item, if applicable.
Nullable (Boolean): the nullability of the item.

Those items that a provider does not support (for example, some forms of the data type) should be present but set to nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Note

Other exceptions that occur indicate that the schema derivation failed for a provider-specified reason.
