A byte offset relative to origin.
A System.IO.SeekOrigin value indicating the reference point used to obtain the new position


In This Topic
    Seek Method (FormattedCompressedStream)
    In This Topic
    Sets the position within the current stream.
    Syntax
    'Declaration
     
    Public Overrides Function Seek( _
       ByVal offset As Long, _
       ByVal origin As SeekOrigin _
    ) As Long
    'Usage
     
    Dim instance As FormattedCompressedStream
    Dim offset As Long
    Dim origin As SeekOrigin
    Dim value As Long
     
    value = instance.Seek(offset, origin)
    public override long Seek( 
       long offset,
       SeekOrigin origin
    )

    Parameters

    offset
    A byte offset relative to origin.
    origin
    A System.IO.SeekOrigin value indicating the reference point used to obtain the new position

    Return Value

    The new position within the current stream.
    Remarks

    Use the CanSeek property to determine whether the current instance supports seeking.

    If offset is negative, the new position will precede the position specified by origin by the number of bytes specified by offset. If offset is zero, the new position will be the position specified by origin. If offset is positive, the new position will follow the position specified by origin by the number of bytes specified by offset.

    Requirements

    Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
