TElfResourceReader.CheckMagic function

Declaration

function CheckMagic(aStream: TStream): Boolean; override

Description

Not described here; this is what TAbstractResourceReader.CheckMagic says of it:

Checks whether a stream is in a format the reader recognizes

A TResources object invokes this method when it is searching for a reader able to read a stream, passing that stream as the aStream parameter.

aStream position is already correctly set: the reader must start to read from there.

This method should read the minimum amount of information needed to recognize the contents of a stream as a valid format: it usually means reading a magic number or a file header.
