Creates a Stream that serves to transcode data between an inner Encoding and an outer Encoding, similar to Convert(Encoding, Encoding, Byte[]).
public static System.IO.Stream CreateTranscodingStream (System.IO.Stream innerStream, System.Text.Encoding innerStreamEncoding, System.Text.Encoding outerStreamEncoding, bool leaveOpen = false);
static member CreateTranscodingStream : System.IO.Stream * System.Text.Encoding * System.Text.Encoding * bool -> System.IO.Stream
Public Shared Function CreateTranscodingStream (innerStream As Stream, innerStreamEncoding As Encoding, outerStreamEncoding As Encoding, Optional leaveOpen As Boolean = false) As Stream
Parameters
- innerStream
- Stream
The stream to wrap.
- innerStreamEncoding
- Encoding
The encoding associated with innerStream
.
- outerStreamEncoding
- Encoding
The encoding associated with the Stream that's returned by this method.
- leaveOpen
- Boolean
true
if disposing the Stream returned by this method should not dispose innerStream
.
Returns
A stream that transcodes the contents of innerStream
as outerStreamEncoding
.
Remarks
The returned Stream's CanRead and CanWrite properties will reflect whether innerStream
is readable or writable. If innerStream
is full-duplex, the returned Stream will be as well. However, the returned Stream is not seekable, even if innerStream
's CanSeek property returns true
