SegmentedStream Constructor(Stream,Encoding)

Initializes a new instance of the SegmentedStream class for the specified stream object.

[Visual Basic]
Public Function New( _
   ByVal stream As Stream, _
   ByVal encoding As Encoding _
)

[C#]
public SegmentedStream( 
   Stream stream,
   Encoding encoding
);

[C++]
public: SegmentedStream( 
   Stream* stream,
   Encoding* encoding
)

[C++/CLI]
public:
SegmentedStream( 
   Stream^ stream,
   Encoding^ encoding
)

Parameters

stream: The source stream to Read/Write.
encoding: The encoding type to use when working with strings.

Remarks

Although any type of stream can be used to initialize a SegmentedStream (a FileStream or a MemoryStream, for example) the intended use is to initialize a SegmentedStream with some form of network stream (such as a TcpStream). You will not usually need to create a SegmentedStream object, as the SegmentedStream object currently accessing the TCP stream is made accessible (either as a property of the component, or as an object accessible in an event or returned from a method). For example, if you wish to send/receive data to/from a server using a stream interface, simply use Tcp.Connect to connect to the server and call Tcp.Stream.Write or Tcp.Stream.Read to send/receive data.

Example

The following example demonstrates initializing a new instance of a SegmentedStream object to a TcpStream.

[Visual Basic]

' Connect to a server

Tcp1.Connect("atropos", 7)



' Initialize a SegmentedStream to the NetworkStream

Dim sstream As New SegmentedStream(new TcpStream(Tcp1))



' Send data

sstream.Write("hello")



' Receive data

Dim s As String = sstream.Read()

[C#]



// Connect to a server
tcp1.Connect("atropos",
7);


// Initialize a SegmentedStream to the NetworkStream
SegmentedStream sstream = new SegmentedStream(new TcpStream(tcp1));


// Send data
sstream.Write("hello");


// Receive data
string s = sstream.Read();
