Can the ReaderControl load byte array

[Mike McFarland]

I am using SilverDox and have a WCF service that converts a pdf byte array from a database to and Xod byte array. How do you load a byte array in the reader control? Is there a example?

 

So far I have tried:

 

HttpStreamingPartRetriever partretriever = new PDFTron.SilverDox.IO.HttpStreamingPartRetriever();

partretriever.AddBytes(e.Result, e.Result.Length)

Action<Exception> callback = null;

myReaderControl.DocumentViewer.Document.LoadAsync(partretriever, callback);

 

I don't quite understand the Action<Exception>... Am I close?

Hi Mike,

You can do this in a couple of different ways. The easiest is if you have a byte array that contains the entire XOD, then you can convert it to a MemoryStream, and use the stream to construct a LocalPartRetriever.

On the other hand if you are converting the PDF to a XOD in a streaming manner and want to feed it to SilverDox as the conversion is taking place, you can use the HttpStreamingPartRetriever as shown in the answer to the 2nd question of this forum post:
