I had a file called TEST.TXT (ANSI) that contained TEST on three lines. I
streamed it into the Binary table and sure enough the readerfunctions threw
exceptions telling me to check if I've reached the end of the file.
However, this might be a hack - I'm not sure, I was able to work around it
like this:
Stream s= rec["Data"] as Stream;
BinaryReader br = new BinaryReader(s, Encoding.ASCII );
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
for( int i=0; i<s.Length; i++)
{
sb.Append( br.ReadChar());
}
MessageBox.Show( sb.ToString() );

Maybe an obvious question, but is the "Data" field of that
Record null? Check binRec.IsNull("Data"), or check for a null return from
binRec.GetStream("Data").
If the field is null and you don't expect it to be, please share a little
more of your code.

Subject: [WiX-users] DTF Stream Operations Issue
I'm trying to read binary data into a memory stream, but
Stream stream = binRec.GetStream("Data");
using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(stream))
{
script += sr.ReadToEnd();
}
Gives me an ArgumentNullException when I try to read the stream. Am I missing
a step?
Is this stream not compatible with a streamreader?
