Method Open
Open(FileAccessPattern)
Opens an asynchronous read-only file stream using the recommended sharing options for repository files (Read | Delete).
Declaration
public FileStream Open(FileAccessPattern accessPattern)Parameters
| Type | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| FileAccessPattern | accessPattern | How the caller is going to read the stream. The file is opened with SequentialScan for Sequential and RandomAccess for Random, which the operating system uses as caching and read-ahead hints. The stream supports reading and seeking either way. |
Returns
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| FileStream | A new FileStream opened for reading. |
Remarks
This is the recommended way to read a repository file. The returned stream allows other readers to access the file concurrently and allows the repository to delete the file while it is still open.
