EOS Indicates whether the current position is at the end of the stream.
LineSeparator Specifies the character used as a line separator in text Stream objects.
Mode The available permissions for modifying data
Position Indicates the current position within a Stream object.
Size The size of the stream in number of bytes.
State Is the object open or closed.
| Type | the type of data contained in the Stream (binary or text). |
| Cancel() | Cancels execution of a pending, asynchronous Open call. |
| Close() | Closes an open Record and any dependent objects |
| CopyTo() | Copies the specified number of characters or bytes (depending on Type) in the Stream to another Stream object |
| Flush() | Forces the contents of the Stream remaining in the ADO buffer to the underlying object |
| LoadFromFile() | Loads the contents of an existing file into a Stream. |
| Open() | Opens a Stream object to manipulate streams of binary or text data |
| Read() | Reads a specified number of bytes from a binary Stream object. |
| ReadText() | Reads specified number of characters from a text Stream object. |
| SaveToFile() | Saves the binary contents of a Stream to a file. |
| SetEos() | Sets the position that is the end of the stream. |
| SkipLine() | Skips one entire line when reading a text stream. |
| Write() | Writes binary data to a Stream object. |
In tree-structured hierarchies such as a file system or an e-mail system, a Record may have a default binary stream of bits associated with it that contains the contents of the file or the e-mail. A Stream object can be used to manipulate fields or records containing these streams of data.
