Hi, I'm I just not reading/understanding this correctly, or is it indeed a documentation bug (in which case I'll file a bug report with a patch). http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/classes/tstream.readbuffer.html The "short description", as far as I'm concerned, is completely wrong for TStream.ReadBuffer. It reads as follows: "Reads data from the stream to a buffer" It seems to me that it describes the flow of data going from the stream to the buffer parameter. But that is what TStream.WriteBuffer() does, not ReadBuffer()??
The explanation is correct. ReadBuffer actually reads data from the stream to the buffer. Just like read. Just like you read from a file. Data goes from the file to your variable.
