Dart.Emulation Namespace > Vt Class > SetStream Method : SetStream(Stream) Method |
Although the Vt control can work with data from any source (file, memory, etc.) its most common usage is displaying data received over an Internet connection. This method provides automatic reading/writing from/to any System.IO.Stream.
A connection must be established with the remote host prior to calling this method. Once called, any data received is automatically displayed in the Vt window. Any key presses on the Vt window are automatically sent over the established connection.
Typical use would be to use Telnet.GetStream or Rlogin.GetStream with this method.
This method uses a default buffer size of 1024 and ThreadPriority.Lowest. Use SetStream(Stream,Int32,ThreadPriority) to specify an alternative buffer size or thread priority.
