BBjTriggerData::getReadBuffer

Description

In BBj 6.00 and higher, and in an After-Read Trigger, this method returns the byte string read by the Filesystem.

Syntax

Return Value	Method
byte[]	getReadBuffer()

Parameters

None.

Return Value

The byte string read in an After-Read Trigger.

Remarks

Methods that return byte[] can usually be treated as if they returned string, because BBj automatically handles the conversion. However, when that byte[] value is directly assigned to an object variable or passed to a Java method, BBj skips the conversion and the raw internal byte[] format is used. You can always use the STR() function to explicitly convert the byte[] value to a string.

Example

rem 'Get the Trigger object from the BBj File System

td! = BBjAPI().getFileSystem().getTriggerData()

rem 'Get the read Buffer
data$ = td!.getReadBuffer()
