Result Sets
You can access the same column information about the results of a query that you can for table schemas. See Columns for the columns returned.
Retrieving Result Set Metadata
You can use the GetSchemaTable method of the SAPBUSINESSWAREHOUSEDataReader to retrieve result set metadata. Call GetSchemaTable after calling ExecuteReader.
Each row of the DataTable describes a column in the query's result.
C#
string connectionString = "User=myuseraccount;Password=mypassword;URL=http://localhost:8000/sap/bw/xml/soap/xmla;";
using (SAPBUSINESSWAREHOUSEConnection conn = new SAPBUSINESSWAREHOUSEConnection(connectionString)) {
SAPBUSINESSWAREHOUSECommand cmd = new SAPBUSINESSWAREHOUSECommand("SELECT Country, Education FROM [2CREPM_DEPSOV3].[2CREPM_DEPSOV3/2CREPM_DEPSOQV3].Customer WHERE Country = 'Australia'", conn);
SAPBUSINESSWAREHOUSEDataReader rdr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
DataTable schemaTable = rdr.GetSchemaTable();
foreach (DataRow row in schemaTable.Rows) {
foreach (DataColumn col in schemaTable.Columns) {
Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1}", col.ColumnName, row[col]);
}
}
}
VB.NET
Dim connectionString As String = "User=myuseraccount;Password=mypassword;URL=http://localhost:8000/sap/bw/xml/soap/xmla;"
Using conn As New SAPBUSINESSWAREHOUSEConnection(connectionString)
Dim cmd As New SAPBUSINESSWAREHOUSECommand("SELECT Country, Education FROM [2CREPM_DEPSOV3].[2CREPM_DEPSOV3/2CREPM_DEPSOQV3].Customer WHERE Country = 'Australia'", conn)
Dim rdr As SAPBUSINESSWAREHOUSEDataReader = cmd.ExecuteReader()
Dim schemaTable As DataTable = rdr.GetSchemaTable()
For Each row As DataRow In schemaTable.Rows
For Each col As DataColumn In schemaTable.Columns
Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1}", col.ColumnName, row(col))
