+\membersection{wxStreamBase::GetLength}\label{wxstreambasegetlength}
-This function returns the last error.
-It is of the form:
-\twocolwidtha{7cm}%
-\begin{twocollist}\itemsep=0pt
-\twocolitem{{\bf wxStream_NOERROR}}{No error occured.}
-\twocolitem{{\bf wxStream_EOF}}{An End Of File exception occured.}

+\constfunc{wxFileOffset}{GetLength}{\void}
-\membersection{wxStreamBase::StreamSize}
-\constfunc{size_t}{StreamSize}{\void}
+Returns the length of the stream in bytes. If the length cannot be determined
+(this is always the case for socket streams for example), returns
+\texttt{wxInvalidOffset}.
-This function returns the size of the stream. For example, for a file it is the size of
-the file). Warning! There are streams which do not have size by definition, such as a socket.

-Internal function. It is called when the stream buffer needs a buffer of the
-specified size. It should return the size that was actually read.

-Internal function. It is called when the stream buffer needs to change the

-\membersection{wxStreamBase::OnSysTell}
+This function returns the size of the stream. For example, for a file it is the
+size of the file.
-\constfunc{off_t}{OnSysTell}{\void}
+\wxheading{Warning}
-Internal function. Is is called when the stream buffer needs to know the
-current position in the stream.
+There are streams which do not have size by definition, such as socket streams.
+In that cases, GetSize returns $0$ so you should always test its return value.
