abstract member SkipBytes : int -> int

- n

the number of bytes to be skipped.
Returns
the number of bytes actually skipped.

Exceptions
if a problem occurs during skipping.
Remarks
Makes an attempt to skip over n
bytes of data from the input stream, discarding the skipped bytes. However, it may skip over some smaller number of bytes, possibly zero. This may result from any of a number of conditions; reaching end of file before n
bytes have been skipped is only one possibility. This method never throws an EOFException
. The actual number of bytes skipped is returned.
