Using dbms_output.get_line in VB.NET

Question

I have some stored procedures to execute that use dbms_output.put_line() to put data into the output buffer.

I know I need to use dbms_output.get_line

Answer 1

In C# I am using the next method:

    private string GetDbmsOutputLine()
    {
        OracleCommand command = new OracleCommand
        {
            Connection = ,
            CommandText = "begin dbms_output.get_line(:line, :status); end;",
            CommandType = CommandType.Text
        };

        OracleParameter lineParameter = new OracleParameter("line",  
            OracleType.VarChar);
        lineParameter.Size = 32000;
        lineParameter.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
        command.Parameters.Add(lineParameter);

        OracleParameter statusParameter = new OracleParameter("status",  
            OracleType.Int32);
        statusParameter.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
        command.Parameters.Add(statusParameter);

        command.ExecuteNonQuery();

        if (command.Parameters["line"].Value is DBNull)
            return null;

        string line = command.Parameters["line"].Value as string;

        return line;
    }
