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 FacebookDataReader 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 = "InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH;"; using (FacebookConnection conn = new FacebookConnection(connectionString)) { FacebookCommand cmd = new FacebookCommand("SELECT * FROM Posts WHERE Target = '11111'", conn); FacebookDataReader 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 = "InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH;" Using conn As New FacebookConnection(connectionString) Dim cmd As New FacebookCommand("SELECT * FROM Posts WHERE Target = '11111'", conn) Dim rdr As FacebookDataReader = 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)) Next Next End Using
