You must call the FeedGetInformation(Byte[],Int32,Int32) method to supply buffered data, and you must call StopFeedGetInformation when the process is complete.
This file information process is useful when receiving transmitted images, such as those on the Internet. It works the same way as the GetInformation(String,Boolean) method, except that your code supplies the image data. The file information process works as follows:
- You call the StartFeedGetInformation method to initialize the file information process.
-
You create a buffer, and each time you fill it with information, you call the FeedGetInformation(Byte[],Int32,Int32) method, which sends the data to the file information process just as if the data were being read from a file on disk.
If the FeedGetInformation(Byte[],Int32,Int32) returns true, this means the frameworks does not have enough data to get the information required; you must read more data and call the FeedGetInformation(Byte[],Int32,Int32) again. When FeedGetInformation(Byte[],Int32,Int32) returns false, the framework has gathered enough data and you can break out of the loop.
- At any time after calling StartFeedGetInformation, you can call CancelFeedGetInformation to gracefully abort the feed operation. This allows you to end the feed process without throwing an exception.
- To end the file information process, you call the StopFeedGetInformation method, which cleans up the process, and returns an instance of the CodecsImageInfo class if successful. If you call this method before enough image data is passed to gather the information, it will successfully clean up the process, but will throw an exception. You should catch the exception if the process is canceled purposely.
This method cannot be used in combination with StartRedirecting.
Specifying true for totalPages can cause the process to be slow for files with large number of pages.
