A BufferList
is represents a linked list of byte buffers. It manages the current total length of the list and is used by the Stream
class internally.
The StreamReader
class reads a stream of binary data backed by a BufferList
. StreamReader
handles the complexity of reading various types of values from a binary data stream for you, including issues regarding the native endianness of the platform.
The BitstreamReader
class wraps a StreamReader
and adds methods to read data on an individual bit level.
The StreamWriter
class writes various binary data types to a writable stream.
The BitstreamWriter
