I recently started using the memoryblock.stringvalue to replace
loading binarystream data into a memoryblock. It seems to be a little
faster, definitely is easier to write. Are their any pitfalls I need
to be aware of?
mb = new MemoryBlock(691199)
mb.LittleEndian = true
bs = folderitem.openAsBinaryFile(false)
bs.Position = offset //offset into file
bs.LittleEndian = true
So code that used to read:
For j = 0 to 691199 step 8
mb.UInt64Value(j) = bs.ReadUInt64
next
becomes:
mb.StringValue(0,691200) = bs.Read(691200)
Seems to work fine on Mac PPC/Intel and Win XP/Vista. Am I missing
anything? I am doing bitwise operations on the memoryblock, is there
a case when then won't work?
Thanks,
Drew
