BLOB Structure
Contains information about a block of data.
Namespace: Microsoft.VisualStudio.OLE.Interop
Assembly: Microsoft.VisualStudio.OLE.Interop (in Microsoft.VisualStudio.OLE.Interop.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Public Structure BLOB
public struct BLOB
public value class BLOB
[<Sealed>]
type BLOB = struct end
JScript supports the use of structures, but not the declaration of new ones.
The BLOB type exposes the following members.
Methods
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|

Equals | Indicates whether this instance and a specified object are equal. (Inherited from ValueType.) |

Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
|
GetHashCode | Returns the hash code for this instance. (Inherited from ValueType.) |
|
GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |

Remarks
The structure name BLOB comes from the acronym BLOB, which stands for Binary Large Object.
This structure does not describe the nature of the data pointed to by pBlobData.
Note
Windows Sockets defines a similar BLOB structure in Wtypes.h. Using both header files in the same source code file creates redefinition compile-time errors.
Thread Safety
Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
