Write Method

[This documentation is for preview only, and is subject to change in later releases. Blank topics are included as placeholders.]

When overridden in a derived class, writes a sequence of bytes to the current stream and advances the current position within this stream by the number of bytes written.

Namespace:  System.IO
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public MustOverride Sub Write ( _
    buffer As Byte(), _
    offset As Integer, _
    count As Integer _
)
public abstract void Write(
    byte[] buffer,
    int offset,
    int count
)
public:
virtual void Write(
    array<unsigned char>^ buffer, 
    int offset, 
    int count
) abstract
abstract Write : 
        buffer:byte[] * 
        offset:int * 
        count:int -> unit 
public abstract function Write(
    buffer : byte[], 
    offset : int, 
    count : int
)

Parameters

  • buffer
    Type: array<System. . :: . .Byte> [] () [] []
    An array of bytes. This method copies count bytes from buffer to the current stream.
  • offset
    Type: System. . :: . .Int32
    The zero-based byte offset in buffer at which to begin copying bytes to the current stream.

Remarks

Use the CanWrite property to determine whether the current instance supports writing.

If the write operation is successful, the position within the stream advances by the number of bytes written. If an exception occurs, the position within the stream remains unchanged.
