Constructors

PipeStream()

public PipeStream()

Properties

CanRead

Gets a value indicating whether the current stream supports reading.

public override bool CanRead { get; }

Property Value

bool

true.

Remarks

It is safe to read from PipeStream even after disposal.

CanSeek

Gets a value indicating whether the current stream supports seeking.

public override bool CanSeek { get; }

Property Value

bool

false.

CanWrite

Gets a value indicating whether the current stream supports writing.

public override bool CanWrite { get; }

Property Value

bool

true if this stream has not been disposed and the underlying channel is still open, otherwise false.

Remarks

A value of true does not necessarily mean a write will succeed. It is possible that the stream is disposed by another thread between a call to CanWrite and the call to write.

Length

Gets the number of bytes currently available for reading.

public override long Length { get; }

Property Value

long

A long value representing the length of the stream in bytes.

Position

This property always returns 0, and throws NotSupportedException when calling the setter.

public override long Position { get; set; }

Property Value

long

Exceptions

NotSupportedException

The setter is called.

Returns

long
