This interface method returns a new array of the specified length to store Oracle Collection elements.
// C#
Array CreateArray(int numElems);
numElems
The number of collection elements to be returned.
A System.Array object.
An Oracle Collection Type may be represented in either of the following ways:
As an array of the appropriate type. The type must be able to represent a collection element.
As a Custom Type that contains an array of the appropriate type.
In both cases, the CreateArray method creates an array of the specified length to store the collection elements.
This method returns a newly allocated OracleUdtStatus array of the specified length that will be used to store the null status of the collection elements.
// C#
Array CreateStatusArray(int numElems);
numElems
The number of collection elements to be returned.
A multi-dimensional OracleUdtStatus array as a System.Array.
An Oracle Collection Type can be represented in the following ways:
As an array of the appropriate type. The type must be able to represent a collection element.
As a Custom Type that contains an array of the appropriate type.
In both cases, the CreateStatusArray method creates an OracleUdtStatus array of the specified length that stores the null status of the collection elements.
