How do I convert struct System.Byte byte[] to a System.IO.Stream object in C#?
The general approach to write to any stream (not only MemoryStream
) is to use BinaryWriter
:
static void Write(Stream s, Byte[] bytes)
{
using (var writer = new BinaryWriter(s))
{
writer.Write(bytes);
}
}
The easiest way to convert a byte array to a stream is using the MemoryStream
class:
Stream stream = new MemoryStream(byteArray);
Look into the MemoryStream
class.
You're looking for the MemoryStream.Write
method.
For example, the following code will write the contents of a byte[]
array into a memory stream:
byte[] myByteArray = new byte[10];
MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream();
stream.Write(myByteArray, 0, myByteArray.Length);
Alternatively, you could create a new, non-resizable MemoryStream
object based on the byte array:
byte[] myByteArray = new byte[10];
MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream(myByteArray);
