Read(byte[ ], int, int)

Overrides Stream

This method reads a specified amount of unicode bytes from the current instance, advances the position within the stream, and populates the byte array buffer.

Declaration

// C#
public override int Read(byte[] buffer, int offset, int count);

Parameters

buffer

The byte array buffer that is populated.
offset

The zero-based offset (in bytes) at which the buffer is populated.
count

The maximum amount of bytes to be read.

Return Value

The number of unicode bytes read into the given byte[] buffer or 0 if the end of the stream has been reached.

Remarks

This method reads a maximum of count bytes from the current stream and stores them in buffer beginning at offset. The current position within the stream is advanced by the number of bytes read. However, if an exception occurs, the current position within the stream remains unchanged.

The XML data is read starting from the position specified by the Position property.

Exceptions

ObjectDisposedException - The object is already disposed.

InvalidOperationException - The OracleConnection is not open or has been closed during the lifetime of the object.
