How to retrieve the blob object in WinForms to physical location with "Binary Streaming" enabled ?

See the snippet below, how it works!!


SqlConnection Conn = new SqlConnection("<>");
SqlCommand Cmd = new SqlCommand("select docobject, filetype,docname from documents where docid = 23", Conn);
Cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
Conn.Open();
SqlDataReader Reader = Cmd.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection);
//
string DocumentName = null;
FileStream FStream = null;
BinaryWriter BWriter = null;
//
//
//
byte[] Binary = null;
const int ChunkSize = 100;
int SizeToWrite = 0;
MemoryStream MStream = null;
//
while (Reader.Read())
{
DocumentName = Reader["docname"].ToString();
// Create a file to hold the output.
FStream = new FileStream(@"c:\" + DocumentName, FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.Write);
BWriter = new BinaryWriter(FStream);
Binary = (Reader["docobject"]) as byte[];
SizeToWrite = ChunkSize;
MStream = new MemoryStream(Binary);
//
for (int i = 0; i < Binary.GetUpperBound(0) - 1; i = i + ChunkSize)
{
if (i + ChunkSize >= Binary.Length) SizeToWrite = Binary.Length - i;
byte[] Chunk = new byte[SizeToWrite];
MStream.Read(Chunk, 0, SizeToWrite);
BWriter.Write(Chunk);
BWriter.Flush();
}
BWriter.Close();
FStream.Close();
}
FStream.Dispose();
}
