Readbytes - Stream.bmx

BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Module Tweaks/Readbytes - Stream.bmx

peltazoid(Posted 2008) [#1]
Currently The Readbytes function in Stream.bmx (BRL.Streams) does not throw an exception when eof is reached, instead it just reads nothing from the stream.

here is a fix for this. could this be added to the next version of blitzmax?

Method ReadBytes( buf:Byte Ptr,count )
	Local n = count

	'MARK: new line 		
	If Eof() Then Throw New TStreamReadException

	        While count>0 And Not Eof()
		        Local n = Read( buf , count )
			If Not n Throw New TStreamReadException
			count:-n
			buf:+n
		Wend
	Return n
End Method


Cheers.
