# octet_memory_stream
[![View the Alire Crate](https://img.shields.io/endpoint?url=https://alire.ada.dev/badges/octet_memory_stream.json)](https://alire.ada.dev/crates/octet_memory_stream)

`octet_memory_stream` provides a standalone `Ada.Streams.Root_Stream_Type`
wrapper around an `Octet_Array` (array of 8-bit bytes,) primarily for the
purpose of protecting an over-arching stream from misalignment while reading
from, or writing to, e.g., a file format.

If the `Memory_Stream` detects an out-of-bounds error as the result of a read
or write operation, an `Out_Of_Bounds_Error` exception will be raised.

**NOTE:** This crate does not currently support writing from a `Memory_Stream`,
however this is a priority and will be done so in update 1.1.0.

Example Use
-----------
All pertinent types and subprograms are available within the package
`Octet_Memory_Stream`. Wrapping an `Octet_Array` is done through the
`To_Stream` function.
```ada
pragma Ada_2022;

with Ada.Streams.Stream_IO;
use Ada.Streams.Stream_IO;
with Octet_Memory_Stream;

procedure TestDemo is
F : File_Type;

end;
