  The index of the column in the PipelineBuffer row.

Remarks

This method works with the following Integration Services data types:

• DT_DBTIME

• DT_DBTIME2

The GetTime method retrieves a TimeSpan value for columns of data types, DT_DBTIME and DT_DBTIME2.

If the value of the column is null, the PipelineBuffer throws a ColumnIsNullException. You can check for a null value 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.
