Reads a value at the current file position and moves the file pointer according to the data type of the value.

vGetNextBinaryValue = Object.GetNextBinaryValue(DataType)

Object with this method

DataType

Specifies the date type of the value to be read out.
Enumeration with the following selection terms:

1	eI8	8-bit integer values
2	eI16	16-bit integer values
3	eI32	32-bit integer values
4	eI64	64-bit integer values
5	eByte	Byte
6	eU16	16-bit unsigned integer
7	eU32	32-bit unsigned integer
8	eU64	64-bit unsigned integer
9	eR32	32-bit real values
10	eR64	64-bit real values

vGetNextBinaryValue

Variant
Receives the value that has been read out.
When the method reaches the end of the file, the return value is a VT_EMPTY type variant.

Note If you specify the data types eU16 or eU32, the return value Value can cause problems in VBS.

The following example reads a 32-bit integer value and a 32-bit unsigned integer value from the file and interprets these two values as Root properties:

Copy script

Dim MyAttr
MyAttr = File.GetNextBinaryValue(eI32)
Call Root.Properties.Add("Attr1", MyAttr)
MyAttr = File.GetNextBinaryValue(eU32)
Call Root.Properties.Add("Attr2", MyAttr)
