Stream

public class System.IO.Stream : System.Any

A sequence of bytes. A stream says what it can do (CanRead, CanWrite, CanSeek); what it cannot do throws IOError.

Properties

property CanRead: bool
#

read-only 

property CanWrite: bool
#

read-only 

property CanSeek: bool
#

read-only 

property Length: i64
#

read-only

How many bytes it has (streams that can seek).

property Position: i64
#

Where the next byte is read or written (streams that can seek).

Methods

method Read(buffer: u8[], offset: i32, count: i32) -> i32
#

virtual

Reads up to count bytes into buffer[offset..]: how many (0 only at the end).

method Write(buffer: u8[], offset: i32, count: i32) -> void
#

virtual

Writes buffer[offset..offset + count].

method Seek(offset: i64, origin: System.IO.SeekOrigin) -> i64
#

virtual

Moves to offset from origin: the new position.

method SetLength(length: i64) -> void
#

virtual

Makes it length bytes long (cutting or adding zeros).

method Flush() -> void
#

virtual

Sends what is buffered to where the stream ends up.

method Close() -> void
#

virtual

Flushes and lets go of what the stream holds; using it afterwards throws.

method ReadByte() -> i32
#

virtual

The next byte (0–255), or -1 at the end.

method WriteByte(value: u8) -> void
#

virtual 

method Read(buffer: u8[]) -> i32
#

Reads up to buffer.Length bytes: how many (0 only at the end).

method Write(buffer: u8[]) -> void
# 
method ReadExactly(buffer: u8[], offset: i32, count: i32) -> void
#

Reads exactly count bytes into buffer[offset..] (EndOfStreamError if the stream ends first).

method ReadToEnd() -> u8[]
#

Everything from the position to the end.

method CopyTo(destination: System.IO.Stream) -> void
#

Copies everything from the position to the end into destination.

method CopyTo(destination: System.IO.Stream, bufferSize: i32) -> void
#
