Fore Syntax

ReadFromStream(Stream: IIOStream);

Fore.NET Syntax

None;

Parameters

Stream. Stream - source for reading data.

Description

The ReadFromStream method reads the element of the binary data collection from the stream.

Comments

To write data to the stream, use the IAdhocBinaryItem.WriteToStream method.

Fore Example

Executing the example requires a form containing the Button component with the Button1 identifier. The repository must contain a dashboard with the AN_PAN name. Add links to the Metabase, Adhoc, Fore, Io system assemblies.

Sub UserProc;
Var
    MB: IMetabase;
    File1, File2: IFileInfo;
    BR: IBinaryReader;
    BW: IBinaryWriter;
    AP: IAdhocReport;
    BI: IAdhocBinaryItem;
    BD: IAdhocBinaryData;
Begin
    MB := MetabaseClass.Active;
    AP := MB.ItemById("AN_PAN").Edit As IAdhocReport;
    // Collection of binary data
    BD := AP.BinaryData;
    // Files for reading and writing
    File1 := New FileInfo.Attach("c:\Image.jpg");
    File2 := New FileInfo.Attach("c:\New_Image.jpg");
    // Open file for reading
    BR := File1.OpenBinaryReader;
    // Open file for writing
    BW := File2.OpenBinaryWriter(True);
    // Clear binary data collection
    BD.Clear;
    // New element of binary data collection
    BD.Add;
    BI := BD.Item(0);
    // Read from the stream
    BI.ReadFromStream(BR.Stream);
    // Element type
    BI.Type := AdhocBinaryType.Png;
    // Write to stream
    BI.WriteToStream(BW.Stream);
    (AP As IMetabaseObject).Save;
    AP := Null;
End Sub UserProc;

After executing the example the document of binary type containing data from the Image.jpg file will be created and linked to the dashboard. The data from the created document will be written to the New_Image.jpg file.
