Parameters

offset

The zero-based index into the array specifying where the method can begin to write to the buffer.

array

The array of characters that serves as the buffer to which the text contents are written.

offset

The zero-based index into the array specifying where the method can begin to write to the buffer.

len

The number of bytes to write into the buffer.

Returns

The number of bytes written to the buffer.

Exceptions

Type	Reason
ArgumentNullException	array is null.
ArgumentOutOfRangeException	offset < 0, or len < 0. - or - len > array.Length - offset.
System.Xml.XmlException	The Base64 sequence is not valid.

Remarks

Note:

In the dnprdnext release, the recommended practice is to create System.Xml.XmlReader instances using the erload:System.Xml.XmlReader.Create method. This allows you to take full advantage of the new features introduced in this release. For more information, see Creating XML Readers.

Like XmlTextReader.ReadChars(Char[], int, int), this method can be called successively to read large streams of embedded text. It decodes Base64 content and returns the decoded binary bytes (for example, an inline Base64 encoded GIF image) into the buffer. See RFC 1521.
