StringStream¶

Qualified name: delphivcl.StringStream

class StringStream¶

Bases: BytesStream

TStringStream provides file-like access to information stored as a long string. Use TStringStream to store data as a long string enhanced with I/O capabilities. TStringStream is useful as an intermediary object that can hold text as well as read it from or write it to another storage medium. TStringStream provides a mechanism for manipulating text that is obtained from a less accessible medium.

Methods

`ReadBytes`	Read content as bytes.
`ReadFloat`	Read content as float.
`ReadInt`	Read content as integer.
`ReadString`	Read content as string.
`WriteBytes`	Write content as bytes.
`WriteFloat`	Write content as float.
`WriteInt`	Write content as integer.
`WriteString`	Write content as string.

Attributes

`Bytes`	Specifies the stored data.
`Capabilities`	StreamCapabilities:
`ClassName`	Returns the TObject.ClassName
`DataString`	Provides direct access to the string that stores the text represented by the TStringStream object.
`Encoding`	Represents the encoding used internally by the TStringStream instance to store the data.
`Memory`	Provides direct access to the memory pool allocated for the memory stream.
`Position`	Indicates the current offset into the stream for reading and writing.
`Size`	Indicates the size in bytes of the stream.

ClassName¶: Returns the TObject.ClassName

DataString¶

Provides direct access to the string that stores the text represented by the TStringStream object. Use DataString to get access to the text of the stream. The text represents the information that is being transferred by means of the string stream. Size is the number of bytes in the string, and Position is the current position within DataString.

Note: DataString is a read-only property. DataString can be used to change the contents of the string, but applications can’t change the DataString itself.

Type:: str

Encoding¶

Represents the encoding used internally by the TStringStream instance to store the data. Encoding represents the encoding that is used to get the corresponding array of bytes from a given string, or to obtain the corresponding string from the contained array of bytes. (A string stream contains an array of bytes.) The encoding of a stream string is set in the constructor (you can specify what encoding to use).
