Method Read

Read(byte[], int, int)

When overridden in a derived class, reads a sequence of bytes from the current stream and advances the position within the stream by the number of bytes read.

Declaration

public override int Read(byte[] buffer, int offset, int count)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
byte[]	buffer	An array of bytes. When this method returns, the buffer contains the specified byte array with the values between offset and (offset + count - 1) replaced by the bytes read from the current source.
int	offset	The zero-based byte offset in buffer at which to begin storing the data read from the current stream.
int	count	The maximum number of bytes to be read from the current stream.

Returns

Type	Description
int	The total number of bytes read into the buffer. This can be less than the number of bytes requested if that many bytes are not currently available, or zero (0) if the end of the stream has been reached.

Overrides

Stream.Read(byte[], int, int)

Exceptions

Type	Condition
ArgumentException	The sum of offset and count is larger than the buffer length.
ArgumentNullException	buffer is null.
ArgumentOutOfRangeException	offset or count is negative.
IOException	An I/O error occurs.
NotSupportedException	The stream does not support reading.
ObjectDisposedException	Methods were called after the stream was closed.
