Well, it's relatively simple. All I need to-do, is return the byte array of
read data.
internal byte[] GetData( int index, byte[] terminatingData ){
MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();
while( !eof ){
countRead = ReadSocket(data, 0, data.Length);
//store byte array
ms.Write( data, 0, countRead );
if( countRead > terminatingData.Length )
eof = CheckForEndOfFile( data, countRead, terminatingData );
else
eof = CheckForEndOfFile( ms, terminatingData );
}
}
return ms.ToArray();
}
This is very rough pseudo code. It's what the original method was doing.
I'm trying to decrease the memory footprint.
Once again, thanks all for your feedback.
Cheers!
Dave
