TarReader.GetNextEntry(Boolean) Method

Definition

Retrieves the next entry from the archive stream.

public System.Formats.Tar.TarEntry? GetNextEntry (bool copyData = false);
member this.GetNextEntry : bool -> System.Formats.Tar.TarEntry
Public Function GetNextEntry (Optional copyData As Boolean = false) As TarEntry

Parameters

copyData
Boolean

true to copy the data of the entry into a new MemoryStream. This is helpful when the underlying archive stream is unseekable, and the data needs to be accessed later.

false if the data should not be copied into a new stream. If the underlying stream is unseekable, the user has the responsibility of reading and processing the DataStream immediately after calling this method.

The default value is false.

Returns

A TarEntry instance if a valid entry was found, or null if the end of the archive has been reached.

Exceptions

The entry's data is malformed.

-or-

The archive contains entries in different formats.

-or-

More than one global extended attributes entry was found in the current Pax archive.

-or-

Two or more extended attributes entries were found consecutively in the current Pax archive.

An I/O problem occurred.
