tagBUFFERCOL.lMaxLength Field
Indicates the maximum length of the data stored in a buffer column.
Namespace: Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.Wrapper
Assembly: Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap (in Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Public lMaxLength As Integer
'Usage
Dim instance As tagBUFFERCOL
Dim value As Integer
value = instance.lMaxLength
instance.lMaxLength = value
public int lMaxLength
public:
int lMaxLength
val mutable lMaxLength: int
public var lMaxLength : int
Remarks
The value is important for variable length types, such as DT_BYTES and DT_STR, because it determines the amount of storage available in the buffer for the column. The value does not include space for a trailing nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) terminator, though one is allocated and supplied by the buffer for DT_STR, DT_WSTR, and DT_TEXT types. For string types, the value is the number of characters. For fixed length and binary large object (BLOB) types, the lMaxLength value is ignored and contains a zero.
