FileInputData Property

The data of the file to be compressed.

Syntax

 bzip2.getFileInputData([callback])
 bzip2.setFileInputData( fileInputData_Buffer, [callback])

Default Value

""

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for the getFileInputData([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err, buffer){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'buffer' is the value returned by the method.

The callback for the setFileInputData([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

When this property is set, the class will read in the data from this property instead of reading from the file contained in the FileDecompressedName property.

This property is not available at design time.
