BinaryReader.BaseStream Property

Definition

Exposes access to the underlying stream of the BinaryReader.

public:
 virtual property System::IO::Stream ^ BaseStream { System::IO::Stream ^ get(); };
public virtual System.IO.Stream BaseStream { get; }
member this.BaseStream : System.IO.Stream
Public Overridable ReadOnly Property BaseStream As Stream

Property Value

The underlying stream associated with the BinaryReader.

Examples

The following code example shows how to read and write Double data to memory by using the BinaryReader and BinaryWriter classes on top of the MemoryStream class. MemoryStream only reads and writes Byte data.

using namespace System;
using namespace System::IO;
int main()
{
   int i;
   const int arrayLength = 1000;
   
   // Create random data to write to the stream.
   array<double>^dataArray = gcnew array<double>(arrayLength);
   Random^ randomGenerator = gcnew Random;
   for ( i = 0; i < arrayLength; i++ )
   {
      dataArray[ i ] = 100.1 * randomGenerator->NextDouble();

   }
   BinaryWriter^ binWriter = gcnew BinaryWriter( gcnew MemoryStream );
   try
   {
      
      // Write data to the stream.
      Console::WriteLine( "Writing data to the stream." );
      i = 0;
      for ( i = 0; i < arrayLength; i++ )
      {
         binWriter->Write( dataArray[ i ] );

      }
      
      // Create a reader using the stream from the writer.
      BinaryReader^ binReader = gcnew BinaryReader( binWriter->BaseStream );
      
      // Return to the beginning of the stream.
      binReader->BaseStream->Position = 0;
      try
      {
         
         // Read and verify the data.
         i = 0;
         Console::WriteLine( "Verifying the written data." );
         for ( i = 0; i < arrayLength; i++ )
         {
            if ( binReader->ReadDouble() != dataArray[ i ] )
            {
               Console::WriteLine( "Error writing data." );
               break;
            }

         }
         Console::WriteLine( "The data was written and verified." );
      }
      catch ( EndOfStreamException^ e ) 
      {
         Console::WriteLine( "Error writing data: {0}.", e->GetType()->Name );
      }

   }
   finally
   {
      binWriter->Close();
   }

Remarks

Caution

Using the underlying stream while reading or while using the BinaryReader can cause data loss and corruption. For example, the same bytes might be read more than once, bytes might be skipped, or character reading might become unpredictable.
