MemoryStream Constructor (Byte(), Int32, Int32, Boolean)
Initializes a new non-resizable instance of the MemoryStream class based on the specified region of a byte array, with the CanWrite property set as specified.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Public Sub New ( buffer As Byte(), index As Integer, count As Integer, writable As Boolean )
Parameters
- buffer
-
Type:
System.Byte()
The array of unsigned bytes from which to create this stream.
- index
-
Type:
System.Int32
The index in buffer at which the stream begins.
- count
-
Type:
System.Int32
The length of the stream in bytes.
- writable
-
Type:
System.Boolean
The setting of the CanWrite property, which determines whether the stream supports writing.
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| ArgumentNullException | buffer is null. |
| ArgumentOutOfRangeException | index or count are negative. |
| ArgumentException | The buffer length minus index is less than count. |
The CanRead and CanSeek properties are both set to true. Capacity is set to count.
The length of the stream cannot be set to a value greater than the initial length of the specified byte array; however, the stream can be truncated (see SetLength).
This constructor does not expose the underlying stream. GetBuffer throws UnauthorizedAccessException. However, you can write to the stream if writable is true.
