Method GetBinaryValue

GetBinaryValue()

Return the raw byte[] for the binary field. Note that you must also call BinaryLength and BinaryOffset to know which range of bytes in this returned array belong to the field.

Declaration
byte[] GetBinaryValue()
Returns
Type Description
System.Byte[]

reference to the Field value as byte[].

GetBinaryValue(Byte[])

Return the raw byte[] for the binary field. Note that you must also call BinaryLength and BinaryOffset to know which range of bytes in this returned array belong to the field.

About reuse: if you pass in the result byte[] and it is used, likely the underlying implementation will hold onto this byte[] and return it in future calls to GetBinaryValue() or GetBinaryValue(). So if you subsequently re-use the same byte[] elsewhere it will alter this Fieldable's value.

Declaration
byte[] GetBinaryValue(byte[] result)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.Byte[] result

User defined buffer that will be used if possible. If this is null or not large enough, a new buffer is allocated
Returns
Type Description
System.Byte[]

reference to the Field value as byte[].
