Possible bug in IOStream

[CheloXL]

Hi,
Just checking the code, I see on https://github.com/csharptest/CSharpTest.Net.Collections/blob/master/src/CSharpTest.Net.Collections/IO/IOStream.cs#L68 that you are initializing bytesRead with 0. I believe the correct value should be "offset". Without that, the offset argument is meaningless in the context of that method.

Let's take another look at the method in question:

    public static int ReadChunk(Stream io, byte[] bytes, int offset, int length)
    {
        // So far we have read 0 bytes
        int bytesRead = 0;
        // A variable to track how much we read on each call to Stream.Read
        int len = 0;
        // While bytesRead is less than the requested length to read in 'length'
        // And while Stream.Read does not return 0 bytes read
        // BUG: Reads into bytes at an offset of bytesRead not (offset + bytesRead)
        while (length > bytesRead && 0 != (len = io.Read(bytes, bytesRead, length - bytesRead)))
            // Accumulate the number of bytes we have read
            bytesRead += len;
        // Return the number of bytes actually read
        return bytesRead;
    }

So the correct method should read:

    public static int ReadChunk(Stream io, byte[] bytes, int offset, int length)
    {
        int bytesRead = 0;
        int len = 0;
        while (length > bytesRead && 0 != (len = io.Read(bytes, offset + bytesRead, length - bytesRead)))
            bytesRead += len;
        return bytesRead;
    }

Does that look correct to you???

Yes, that looks correct.
