How can you tell the source of the data when using the Stream.BeginRead Method?
- by xarzu
When using the Stream.BeginRead Method, and you are reading from a stream into a memory, how is it determined where you are reading the data from?
See:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.stream.beginread.aspx
In the list of parameters, I do not see one that tells where the data is being read from:
Parameters
buffer
Type: System.Byte[]
The buffer to read the data into.
offset
Type: System.Int32
The byte offset in buffer at which to begin writing data read from the stream.
count
Type: System.Int32
The maximum number of bytes to read.
callback
Type: System.AsyncCallback
An optional asynchronous callback, to be called when the read is complete.
state
Type: System.Object
A user-provided object that distinguishes this particular asynchronous read request from other requests.
