TAbstractResourceWriter.Write

Writes resources to a stream

Declaration

Source position: resource.pp line 319

protected procedure TAbstractResourceWriter.Write(

  aResources: TResources;

  aStream: TStream

); virtual; abstract;

Arguments

aResources

  

The TResources object to be written to the stream

aStream

  

The stream which resources must be written to

Description

A TResources object invokes this method when it needs to be written to a stream, passing itself as the aResources parameter and the stream as the aStream parameter.

aStream position is already correctly set: the writer must start to write from there.

A writer must write data in the way specified by the format it supports: usually this means writing a header and all resources contained in the TResources object.

For each resource, a writer should write some information about the resource (like type and name) in a way defined by the format it implements, and the resource data, which is accessible by RawData property of the resource.
