toVariantArray

This method of the SafeArray Class converts an entire SafeArray to a Java array. If the SafeArray is multidimensional, it is treated as if it were a single linear array stored in column order. No matter where in the SafeArray the first element is located, that location is called index zero for the purposes of this method.

Syntax

public Variant[] toVariantArray();

Note   Although the Variant methods can operate on any SafeArray type, it is usually much more efficient to use the specific method for the SafeArray type rather than to extract first as a Variant, and then coerce the Variant. This is true even if the SafeArray is a SafeArray of Variants.

Return Value

Returns the flattened contents of the array.
