T his chapter describes the most efficient way of reading many information objects from IS.
If an application wants to retrieve all or many information objects from the given IS server, the fastest way is to use the ISInfoStream class.
Do not use the ISInfoStream class if you don't want to read the values of all selected information objects. For example if you have an application which fills up the list box with the IS information objects names and then shows the value for a single object, when it's selected by the user, then use ISInfoIterator for retrieving object names and ISInfoDictionary for reading the selected object value. Using ISInfoStream will be a performance overkill in this situation.| 2 July 1998 - WebMaster | Copyright © CERN 1998 |
