FromFile method


Imports contents into the Blob from a file.

Type

None

Syntax

  • Basic
object.FromFile Filename
The FromFile(object,Filename) syntax has these parts:
objectAn expression evaluating to an object of type MemBlob.
FilenameRequired. A String value. Holds name of the file to import.

Remarks

The FromFile method imports the contents of a file into the memory Blob. You can use this method to make a Blob read a file, and later encrypt, digest or sign it using the wodCrypt component.

If you work with large files, you might prefer to use the FileBlob object instead. This way the contents of the file will never be moved into memory all at once. It will be read/written partially, as needed by wodCrypt.
