How to convert .OutputStream to byte[] array

Jose Saiz

Hi Guy I am having dificulty trying to convert from HttpContext.Current.Response.OutputStream to a byte[] array

This is my code

but I get the following error message "Stream does not support reading."

the HttpContext.Current.Response.OutputStream carries an image contentype="image/GIF"

Any Idea what I'm missing or doing wrong?

TIA

Hi
Try the below piece of code.
byte[] fileData = null;
using (var binaryReader = new BinaryReader(Request.Files[0].InputStream))
{
    fileData = binaryReader.ReadBytes(Request.Files[0].ContentLength);
}
