Attributes

Remarks

The GetBytes method retrieves the array of bytes from the buffer column.

This method works with the DT_BYTES data type in Integration Services.

If the value column is null, the PipelineBuffer produces a ColumnIsNullException. Check for null by calling the IsNull method.

For a complete list of Integration Services data types and the corresponding Get and Set methods of the PipelineBuffer class to use with each type, see Working with Data Types in the Data Flow.
