LoadSettingsFromStream Method

Summary

Loads settings from a stream.

Syntax

C++

public virtual void LoadSettingsFromStream( 
   Stream sourceStream, 
   PlaySettings flags 
)

Public Overridable Sub LoadSettingsFromStream( _ 
   ByVal sourceStream As Stream, _ 
   ByVal flags As PlaySettings _ 
)

public: 
virtual void LoadSettingsFromStream(  
   Stream^ sourceStream, 
   PlaySettings flags 
)

Parameters

sourceStream
The stream containing the saved settings to load.

flags
The PlaySettings enumeration values specifying which settings to load.

Remarks

This method reconstructs the play control configuration based on the settings loaded from the specified stream. Play control settings can be saved to a stream by calling SaveSettingsToStream, or to a file by calling SaveSettingsToFile. Settings saved to a stream can be loaded using LoadSettingsFromStream.
