Syntax

'Declaration

Public Function GetStream ( _
    name As String _
) As UnmanagedMemoryStream

[ComVisibleAttribute(false)]

    string name
)

name is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Remarks

The GetStream method takes the name of a resource that is stored as a MemoryStream object, gets the value of the Object resource, and returns an UnmanagedMemoryStream object. This method is useful primarily for performance reasons: retrieving a resource as an UnmanagedMemoryStream object instead of an explicit object can improve performance.
