IStream Interface

Definition

Provides the managed definition of the IStream interface, with ISequentialStream functionality.

public interface class IStream
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.InterfaceType(System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComInterfaceType.InterfaceIsIUnknown)]
public interface IStream
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.InterfaceType(System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComInterfaceType.InterfaceIsIUnknown)]
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.Guid("0000000c-0000-0000-C000-000000000046")]
public interface IStream
public interface IStream
[<System.Runtime.InteropServices.InterfaceType(System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComInterfaceType.InterfaceIsIUnknown)>]
type IStream = interface
[<System.Runtime.InteropServices.InterfaceType(System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComInterfaceType.InterfaceIsIUnknown)>]
[<System.Runtime.InteropServices.Guid("0000000c-0000-0000-C000-000000000046")>]
type IStream = interface
type IStream = interface

Remarks

For more information, see the documentation for the IStream and ISequentialStream interfaces.

The common language runtime throws an exception when a COM method in native code returns an HRESULT other than S_OK. For more information, see How to: Map HRESULTs and Exceptions.

Methods

Clone(IStream)

Creates a new stream object with its own seek pointer that references the same bytes as the original stream.

Commit(Int32)

Ensures that any changes made to a stream object that is open in transacted mode are reflected in the parent storage.

CopyTo(IStream, Int64, IntPtr, IntPtr)

Copies a specified number of bytes from the current seek pointer in the stream to the current seek pointer in another stream.

LockRegion(Int64, Int64, Int32)

Restricts access to a specified range of bytes in the stream.

Read(Byte[], Int32, IntPtr)

Reads a specified number of bytes from the stream object into memory starting at the current seek pointer.

Revert()

Discards all changes that have been made to a transacted stream since the last Commit(Int32) call.

Seek(Int64, Int32, IntPtr)

Changes the seek pointer to a new location relative to the beginning of the stream, to the end of the stream, or to the current seek pointer.

SetSize(Int64)

Changes the size of the stream object.

Stat(STATSTG, Int32)

Retrieves the STATSTG structure for this stream.

UnlockRegion(Int64, Int64, Int32)

Removes the access restriction on a range of bytes previously restricted with the LockRegion(Int64, Int64, Int32) method.

Write(Byte[], Int32, IntPtr)

Writes a specified number of bytes into the stream object starting at the current seek pointer.
