Examples

The following code example shows how to write and read strings to an in-memory stream. For the full sample application in C# and in C++/CX, see Serializing and deserializing data sample.

Remarks

Instances of DataReader objects do not support concurrent read operations. If an application concurrently reads or detaches a stream from a DataReader instance that is being read from, the call to the object will fail with the error HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_INVALID_OPERATION).

Constructors

DataReader(IInputStream)

Creates and initializes a new instance of the data reader.

Properties

ByteOrder

Gets or sets the byte order of the data in the input stream.

InputStreamOptions

Gets or sets the read options for the input stream.

UnconsumedBufferLength

Gets the size of the buffer that has not been read.

UnicodeEncoding

Gets or sets the Unicode character encoding for the input stream.

Methods

Close()

Closes the current stream and releases system resources.

DetachBuffer()

Detaches the buffer that is associated with the data reader. This is useful if you want to retain the buffer after you dispose the data reader.

DetachStream()

Detaches the stream that is associated with the data reader.

Dispose()

Performs application-defined tasks associated with freeing, releasing, or resetting unmanaged resources.

FromBuffer(IBuffer)

Creates a new instance of the data reader with data from the specified buffer.

LoadAsync(UInt32)

Loads data from the input stream.

ReadBoolean()

Reads a Boolean value from the input stream.

ReadBuffer(UInt32)

Reads a buffer from the input stream.

ReadByte()

Reads a byte value from the input stream.

ReadBytes(Byte[])

Reads an array of byte values from the input stream.

ReadDateTime()

Reads a date and time value from the input stream.

ReadDouble()

Reads a floating-point value from the input stream.

ReadGuid()

Reads a GUID value from the input stream.

ReadInt16()

Reads a 16-bit integer value from the input stream.

ReadInt32()

Reads a 32-bit integer value from the input stream.

ReadInt64()

Reads a 64-bit integer value from the input stream.

ReadSingle()

Reads a floating-point value from the input stream.

ReadString(UInt32)

Reads a string value from the input stream.

ReadTimeSpan()

Reads a time-interval value from the input stream.

ReadUInt16()

Reads a 16-bit unsigned integer from the input stream.

ReadUInt32()

Reads a 32-bit unsigned integer from the input stream.

ReadUInt64()

Reads a 64-bit unsigned integer from the input stream.
