Creates an MSStream from an InputStream.
.png "Internet Explorer 10"){kind=icon} |
Syntax
var retVal = MSApp.createStreamFromInputStream(type, inputStream);
Parameters
type [in]
Type: DOMStringContent type of the data. This string should be in the format specified in the media-type token defined in section 3.7 of RFC 2616.
inputStream [in]
Type: anyThe IInputStream to be stored in the MSStream.
Exceptions
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| TypeMismatchError | The node type is incompatible with the expected parameter type. For versions earlier than Internet Explorer 10, TYPE_MISMATCH_ERR is returned. |
Remarks
This method takes a content-type, and the IInputStream reference. The method then verifies that the stream reference passed in is an instance of type IInputStream and if not, throws DOMException TYPE_MISMATCH_ERR. If no error occurs, createStreamFromInputStream creates an MSStream (from its inputs).
Examples
An IInputStream can be used to create an MSStream. As MSStreams are inherently one-time-use objects, all URLs created by URL.createObjectURL are revoked the first time it's resolved by the image element. Additionally, requests for a second URL on this object after the stream has been used will fail.
var inputStream = myInputStream; //get InputStream from socket API, etc.
var stream = MSApp.createStreamFromInputStream("image/bmp", inputstream);
document.getElementById("imagetag").src = URL.createObjectURL(stream);
