在从数据库中查询数据时，有时需要事先取得字段内容的大小，再根据情况进行处理。

对于ADO之类返回TField类型的，可以使用DataSize属性，但是！！！这里有很深的坑！！！。

首先看如下代码：

1
2
3
4

if ADOQuery.FieldByName('Test').DataSize > 3 then
  {处理1}
else
  {处理2};

按预想，当Test字段里的数据超过3B时，应该执行处理1的代码，但事实上无论该内容长短，都是执行处理2的代码，WHY?

扒一下Delphi的源码就明白了。

function TBCDField.GetDataSize: Integer;
begin
  // SizeOf(TBcd) is used here instead of SizeOf(Currency) because some
  // datasets store the currency data in TBcd format in the record buffer.
  // For these classes (TBDEDataset & TClientDataset) a call to
  // TField.GetData(Buffer, True) will return a TBcd.
  Result := SizeOf(TBcd);
end;

function TFMTBCDField.GetDataSize: Integer;
begin
  Result := SizeOf(TBcd);
end;

function TBlobField.GetDataSize: Integer;
begin
  // Blob data is not stored in the record buffer and can not be read
  // with a call to TField.GetData. Use GetBlobSize instead.
  Result := 0;
end;

function TReferenceField.GetDataSize: Integer;
begin
  Result := FSize + 2;
end;

也就是说，不能直接取DataSize，而是需要转换为实际的类型后再取DataSize，而且TBlobField是特例，需要使用TBlobField.BlobSize。那么，刚才的例子应该这样写（假设字段类型是Blob）：

1
2
3
4

if TBlobField(ADOQuery.FieldByName('Test')).BlobSize > 3 then
  {处理1}
else
  {处理2};
