class BinaryWriter

in global :: System . IO

Writes primitive types in binary to a stream and supports writing strings in a specific encoding.

public BinaryWriter( Stream output )

  • output The output stream.
  • encoding The character encoding to use.

public BinaryWriter( Stream output, Encoding encoding, bool leaveOpen )

Initializes a new instance of the class based on the specified stream and character encoding, and optionally leaves the stream open.

  • output The output stream.

  • value The unsigned byte to write.

public void Write( byte[] buffer )

Writes a byte array to the underlying stream.

  • buffer A byte array containing the data to write.

public void Write( byte[] buffer, int index, int count )

Writes a region of a byte array to the current stream.

  • buffer A byte array containing the data to write.
  • index The index of the first byte to read from and to write to the stream.
  • count The number of bytes to read from and to write to the stream.

public void Write( char ch )

Writes a Unicode character to the current stream and advances the current position of the stream in accordance with the used and the specific characters being written to the stream.

  • ch The non-surrogate, Unicode character to write.

public void Write( char[] chars )

Writes a character array to the current stream and advances the current position of the stream in accordance with the used and the specific characters being written to the stream.

  • chars A character array containing the data to write.

public void Write( char[] chars, int index, int count )

Writes a section of a character array to the current stream, and advances the current position of the stream in accordance with the used and perhaps the specific characters being written to the stream.

  • chars A character array containing the data to write.
  • index The index of the first character to read from and to write to the stream.
  • count The number of characters to read from and to write to the stream.
