Question: I want to read from data files created by my stock software, and I know it's in binary mode. Exactly, it's written by some C function as Long or Int32. I can't find a suitable filestream class to deal with it. For example I need a nextLong/nextInt32, nextLongPut:, etc.
Question: Bert Freudenberg October 10, 2004 Just use the standard file stream. Binary reading is implemented in PositionableStream, which is a superclass of all file streams. You need to be careful about endianness, of course.
