Hi.<br><br>I have a many to one client server DCOM relationship, and would like to exchange rather large amounts of binary data&nbsp;&nbsp;(stored locally in files on either side) between them.&nbsp;&nbsp;Is there an easy way to read the file into memory and send this data to the server in VC++?&nbsp;&nbsp;Or am I going to have to manually parse through the binary files, sending one chunk, and then another?&nbsp;&nbsp;If so, is there a language construct already out there for making this easy?<br><br>Thanks<br><br>
 
I do not know what platform you are developing on, but thre is a new interface defined in COM+ under Win 2K. The &quot;IStream&quot; interface seems to provide this type of functionality.

See the MSDN for more details.

Hope this helps
