Example
The following code example shows how to read and write Double data to memory by using the BinaryReader and BinaryWriter classes on top of the MemoryStream class.
/*from w w w.j av a2 s .co m*/
using System;
using System.IO;
class BinaryRW
{
static void Main()
{
int i;
const int arrayLength = 1000;
double[] dataArray = new double[arrayLength];
for(i = 0; i < arrayLength; i++)
{
dataArray[i] = 100.1 * i;
}
using(BinaryWriter binWriter = new BinaryWriter(new MemoryStream()))
{
for(i = 0; i < arrayLength; i++)
{
binWriter.Write(dataArray[i]);
}
using(BinaryReader binReader = new BinaryReader(binWriter.BaseStream))
{
binReader.BaseStream.Position = 0;
for(i = 0; i < arrayLength; i++)
{
if(binReader.ReadDouble() != dataArray[i])
{
Console.WriteLine("Error writing data.");
break;
}
}
}
}
}
}
