SaveSettingsToStream Method

Summary

Saves some or all of the convert object settings to a stream.

Syntax

C++/CLI

public virtual void SaveSettingsToStream( 
   Stream targetStream, 
   ConvertSettings flags 
)

public: 
virtual void SaveSettingsToStream(  
   Stream^ targetStream, 
   ConvertSettings flags 
)

Parameters

targetStream
The stream to which settings will be saved.

flags
The settings flags specifying which settings to save. See the ConvertSettings enumeration for settings options.

Remarks

Saves some or all of the convert object settings to a stream. The convert object settings can be saved to a file by calling SaveSettingsToFile. Saved settings can be loaded using the LoadSettingsFromStream method or the LoadSettingsFromFile method. It may be helpful to call CanSaveObjectSettings before calling the save methods. This will ensure the settings can be saved. If either SaveSettingsToFile or SaveSettingsToStream is called for settings that cannot be saved, the save method will fail.
