Gets or sets the data section of this entry. If the EntryType does not support containing data, then returns null.

public:
 property System::IO::Stream ^ DataStream { System::IO::Stream ^ get(); void set(System::IO::Stream ^ value); };

Public Property DataStream As Stream

Property Value

Stream

Gets a stream that represents the data section of this entry.

Sets a new stream that represents the data section, if it makes sense for the EntryType to contain data. If a stream already exists, the old stream is disposed before substituting it with the new stream. Setting a null stream is allowed.

Exceptions

InvalidOperationException

Setting a data section is not supported because the EntryType is not RegularFile (or V7RegularFile for an archive of V7 format).

ArgumentException

The stream does not support reading.

IOException

An I/O problem occurred.

Remarks

If you write data to this data stream, make sure to rewind it to the desired start position before writing this entry into an archive using WriteEntry(TarEntry).
