IconMemberDescription
DataStream(IntPtr, Int64, Boolean, Boolean)
Initializes a new instance of the DataStream class, using a user provided buffer as a backing store.

DataStream(Int64, Boolean, Boolean)
Initializes a new instance of the DataStream class, and allocates a new buffer to use as a backing store.

BeginRead(array<Byte>[]()[], Int32, Int32, AsyncCallback, Object) HostProtectionAttribute.
Begins an asynchronous read operation.
(Inherited from Stream.)
BeginWrite(array<Byte>[]()[], Int32, Int32, AsyncCallback, Object) HostProtectionAttribute.
Begins an asynchronous write operation.
(Inherited from Stream.)
CanRead
Gets a value indicating whether the current stream supports reading.
(Overrides Stream.CanRead.)
CanSeek
Gets a value indicating whether the current stream supports seeking.
(Overrides Stream.CanSeek.)
CanTimeout
Gets a value that determines whether the current stream can time out.
(Inherited from Stream.)
CanWrite
Gets a value indicating whether the current stream supports writing.
(Overrides Stream.CanWrite.)
Close()()()
Closes the current stream and releases any resources (such as sockets and file handles) associated with the current stream.
(Inherited from Stream.)
CreateObjRef(Type)
Creates an object that contains all the relevant information required to generate a proxy used to communicate with a remote object.
(Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.)
CreateWaitHandle()()() Obsolete.
Allocates a WaitHandle object.
(Inherited from Stream.)
DataPointer
Gets the internal pointer to the current stream's backing store.

Dispose(Boolean) (Overrides Stream.Dispose(Boolean).)
Dispose()()()
Releases all resources used by the Stream.
(Inherited from Stream.)
EndRead(IAsyncResult)
Waits for the pending asynchronous read to complete.
(Inherited from Stream.)
EndWrite(IAsyncResult)
Ends an asynchronous write operation.
(Inherited from Stream.)
Equals(Object)
Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Finalize()()()
Releases unmanaged resources and performs other cleanup operations before the DataStream is reclaimed by garbage collection.
(Overrides Object.Finalize()()().)
Flush()()()
Not supported.
(Overrides Stream.Flush()()().)
GetHashCode()()()
Serves as a hash function for a particular type. GetHashCode()()() is suitable for use in hashing algorithms and data structures like a hash table.
(Inherited from Object.)
GetLifetimeService()()()
Retrieves the current lifetime service object that controls the lifetime policy for this instance.
(Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.)
GetType()()()
Gets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object.)
InitializeLifetimeService()()()
Obtains a lifetime service object to control the lifetime policy for this instance.
(Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.)
Length
Gets the length in bytes of the stream.
(Overrides Stream.Length.)
MemberwiseClone(Boolean)
Creates a shallow copy of the current MarshalByRefObject object.
(Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.)
MemberwiseClone()()()
Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Position
Gets or sets the position within the current stream.
(Overrides Stream.Position.)
Read(array<Byte>[]()[], Int32, Int32)
Reads a sequence of bytes from the current stream and advances the position within the stream by the number of bytes read.
(Overrides Stream.Read(array<Byte>[]()[], Int32, Int32).)
Read<(Of <(T>)>)()()()
Reads a single value from the current stream and advances the current position within this stream by the number of bytes read.

ReadByte()()()
Reads a byte from the stream and advances the position within the stream by one byte, or returns -1 if at the end of the stream.
(Inherited from Stream.)
ReadRange<(Of <(T>)>)(Int32)
Reads an array of values from the current stream, and advances the current position within this stream by the number of bytes written.

ReadTimeout
Gets or sets a value that determines how long the stream will attempt to read before timing out.
(Inherited from Stream.)
Seek(Int64, SeekOrigin)
Sets the position within the current stream.
(Overrides Stream.Seek(Int64, SeekOrigin).)
SetLength(Int64)
Not supported.
(Overrides Stream.SetLength(Int64).)
ToString()()()
Returns a String that represents the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Write(array<Byte>[]()[], Int32, Int32)
Writes a sequence of bytes to the current stream and advances the current position within this stream by the number of bytes written.
(Overrides Stream.Write(array<Byte>[]()[], Int32, Int32).)
Write<(Of <(T>)>)(T)
Writes a single value to the stream, and advances the current position within this stream by the number of bytes written.

WriteByte(Byte)
Writes a byte to the current position in the stream and advances the position within the stream by one byte.
(Inherited from Stream.)
WriteRange(IntPtr, Int64)
Writes a range of bytes to the current stream, and advances the current position within this stream by the number of bytes written.

WriteRange<(Of <(T>)>)(array<T>[]()[])
Writes an array of values to the current stream, and advances the current position within this stream by the number of bytes written.

WriteRange<(Of <(T>)>)(array<T>[]()[], Int32, Int32)
Writes an array of values to the current stream, and advances the current position within this stream by the number of bytes written.

WriteTimeout
Gets or sets a value that determines how long the stream will attempt to write before timing out.
(Inherited from Stream.)
