[Ironruby-core] byte[] to ruby string

[Håkon Clausen]

Hello,

I'm struggling with converting a byte array into a ruby binary string.
Does anybody know how to make something like this pass?

require 'test/unit'
include System::IO
class Binstring < Test::Unit::TestCase

  def test_binstring_bytea
    fileName = 'flowers.jpg'

    #Ruby way
    data1 = File.read(fileName)

    #.Net
    fs = FileStream.new(fileName, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);
    br = BinaryReader.new(fs);
    numBytes = FileInfo.new(fileName).Length;
    buff = br.ReadBytes(numBytes);
    data2 = System::Text::ASCIIEncoding.new.GetString(buff).to_s

    assert data1 == data2
  end

end

Regards,

Håkon
