ObjectScript Library.FileBinaryStream convert into a string

How can I create a string a from binary stream? I tried StreamGet and OutputToDevice class methods but that is not returning the string. Is there another class I should use

Thanks :)

Solution

  • Assuming that stream is a %Library.FileBinaryStream:

    set string = stream.Read($$$MaxStringLength)

    Note that string can't be more than 7mb, while stream can be bigger.
