PipelineBuffer.SetDateTime Method

Assigns a DateTime value to the PipelineBuffer column.

Namespace:  Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline
Assembly:  Microsoft.SqlServer.PipelineHost (in Microsoft.SqlServer.PipelineHost.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub SetDateTime ( _
    columnIndex As Integer, _
    value As DateTime _
)
'Usage
Dim instance As PipelineBuffer
Dim columnIndex As Integer
Dim value As DateTime

instance.SetDateTime(columnIndex, value)

public void SetDateTime(
    int columnIndex,
    DateTime value
)

public:
void SetDateTime(
    int columnIndex, 
    DateTime value
)

member SetDateTime : 
        columnIndex:int * 
        value:DateTime -> unit 

public function SetDateTime(
    columnIndex : int, 
    value : DateTime
)

Parameters

• columnIndex
  Type: System.Int32
  The index of the column in the buffer row.

• value
  Type: System.DateTime
  The value assigned to the buffer column.

Remarks

The SetDateTime method assigns a DateTime value to the buffer column specified by the columnIndex parameter.

This method works with the following Integration Services data types:

• DT_DATE

• DT_DBTIMESTAMP

• DT_DBTIMESTAMP2

• DT_FILETIME

When the DateTime value requires more digits for fractional seconds than the DT_DBTIMESTAMP2 column supports, the data is truncated and a DoesNotFitBufferException occurs.

If the DataType of the buffer column is not DT_DATE, DT_DBTIMESTAMP, DT_DBTIMESTAMP2, or DT_FILETIME an UnsupportedBufferDataTypeException occurs.

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.
