To convert a string to a stream you need to decide which encoding the bytes in the stream should have to represent that string - for example you can: MemoryStream mStrm= new MemoryStream( Encoding. UTF8. GetBytes( contents ) );
A stringstream associates a string object with a stream allowing you to read from the string as if it were a stream (like cin). To use stringstream, we need to include sstream header file. The stringstream class is extremely useful in parsing input.
The stream is basically the sequence of bytes passing through the communication path. There are two main streams: the input stream and the output stream. The input stream is used for reading data from file (read operation) and the output stream is used for writing into the file (write operation).
I have just tested this and works fine.
string test = "Testing 1-2-3";
// convert string to stream
byte[] byteArray = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(test);
MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream(byteArray);
// convert stream to string
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(stream);
string text = reader.ReadToEnd();
If stream has already been written to, you might want to seek to the beginning before first before reading out the text: stream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
This is so common but so profoundly wrong. Protobuf data is not string data. It certainly isn't ASCII. You are using the encoding backwards. A text encoding transfers:
You do not have "formatted bytes". You have arbitrary bytes. You need to use something like a base-n (commonly: base-64) encode. This transfers
look at Convert.ToBase64String and Convert. FromBase64String
a UTF8 MemoryStream to String conversion:
var res = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(stream.GetBuffer(), 0 , (int)stream.Length)
Try this.
string output1 = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(byteArray, 0, byteArray.Length)
