Description

Methods responsible for reading up to Count but not more than SizeOf(Buffer) bytes from the stream into Buffer.

ReadData is used in cases, where the number of bytes to read from the stream is not necessarily fixed.

ReadData works using the following algorithms:

  • When ReadData does not have the Count parameter, then ReadData tries to read the SizeOf(Buffer) number of bytes, then advances the current position in the stream by the number of bytes transferred. ReadData returns the number of bytes read.
  • When ReadData has the Count parameter, then:
    • If Count > SizeOf(Buffer), then ReadData tries to read the SizeOf(Buffer) number of bytes. ReadData advances the current position in the stream by Count number of bytes. ReadData returns Count.
    • If Count <= SizeOf(Buffer), then ReadData tries to read up to the Count number of bytes from the stream. ReadData advances the current position in the stream by the number of bytes transferred. ReadData returns the number of bytes read.

ReadData methods call Read to do their actual reading.
