[mapguide-users] ByteReader Problem

Kenneth,
 
If I run this code, it results in an endless loop because the 
    read = mapByteRdr.Read(buf, buf.length);
call reads the same data each time - the start point for each read is
not advanced.

The only way around it, that I have found, is to copy/paste code like
this:

System.IO.MemoryStream ms = new System.IO.MemoryStream();
byte[] buf = new byte[8*1024];
int read = 1;
while(read != 0)
{
    read = mapByteRdr.Read(buf, buf.length);
  ms.Write(buf, 0, read);
}

//ms now contains the stream

	Thanks Dennis.
	 
	I've tried this, but I'm only getting 8192 bytes read into the
byte buffer. This seems to be the problem mentioned by Kenneth. The Read
method doesn't seem to allow the start location for the read to be set,
so looping until the entire content of the Resource is read into the
buffer doesn't seem to be an option.
	 
	Presumably somebody must have found a way around this.

	... this sequence tends to work     

	 

	     // For some reason the MgByteReader "disappears"

	     // This seems to work ....

	            long long_length =
rs.GetResourceContent(resId).GetLength();

	            byte[] byteBuffer = new byte[long_length];

	            int numBytes =
rs.GetResourceContent(resId).Read(byteBuffer, (int)long_length);

	I am trying to alter a map definition through the API and cannot
get the contents of the MgByteReader in string format. Here's the code:-

	            String mapDefinition = "Library://My Folder/Maps/My
Map.MapDefinition"; 
	            MgResourceIdentifier MapResID = new
MgResourceIdentifier(mapDefinition); 

	            MgByteReader mapByteRdr =
res.GetResourceContent(MapResID);//res is instantiated Resource Service.


	            XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument(); 
	            
	            doc.LoadXml(mapByteRdr.ToString()); 

	LoadXML fails with an error ' Root element is missing'. I can
copy the contents of mapByteRdr from Visual Studio at runtime and it
contains properly formatted XML for the map definition. If I use the
ToFile() method, the resultant file is empty. I cannot see why these two
methods do not return the xml string in the reader. Any help is welcome.

	Cheers, 

	Keith
