使用Net.Sockets.TcpListener和Net.Sockets.TcpClient进行图片传输时如何精确控制接收缓存数组大小

<span style="font-size:18px;">在dotnet平台Net.Sockets.TcpListener和Net.Sockets.TcpClient已经为我们封装了所有Socket关于tcp部分，操作也更为简单，面向数据流。使用TcpClient的GetStream方法获取数据流后可以方便的对数据流进行读写操作，就如同本地磁盘的文件读写一样，使得程序员在设计程序时更为便捷简单。</span>

但如果你使用过这两个对象进行数据传输的时候，你会发现问题也随之而来——GetStream获取的数据流是一个永无止境的Stream，你无法获取它的具体长度。

来看一下微软MSDN关于这两个对象的例程：

Shared Sub Connect(server As [String], message As [String])
   Try
      ‘ Create a TcpClient.
      ‘ Note, for this client to work you need to have a TcpServer
      ‘ connected to the same address as specified by the server, port
      ‘ combination.
      Dim port As Int32 = 13000
      Dim client As New TcpClient(server, port)

      ‘ Translate the passed message into ASCII and store it as a Byte array.
      Dim data As [Byte]() = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(message)

      ‘ Get a client stream for reading and writing.
      ‘  Stream stream = client.GetStream();
      Dim stream As NetworkStream = client.GetStream()

      ‘ Send the message to the connected TcpServer.
      stream.Write(data, 0, data.Length)

      Console.WriteLine("Sent: {0}", message)

      ‘ Receive the TcpServer.response.
      ‘ Buffer to store the response bytes.
      data = New [Byte](256) {}

      ‘ String to store the response ASCII representation.
      Dim responseData As [String] = [String].Empty

      ‘ Read the first batch of the TcpServer response bytes.
      Dim bytes As Int32 = stream.Read(data, 0, data.Length)
      responseData = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetString(data, 0, bytes)
      Console.WriteLine("Received: {0}", responseData)

      ‘ Close everything.
      stream.Close()
      client.Close()
   Catch e As ArgumentNullException
      Console.WriteLine("ArgumentNullException: {0}", e)
   Catch e As SocketException
      Console.WriteLine("SocketException: {0}", e)
   End Try

   Console.WriteLine(ControlChars.Cr + " Press Enter to continue...")
   Console.Read()
End Sub ‘Connect

你不得不去指定一个固定尺寸的缓冲区来接收数据，如果实际发送的数据超出了这个长度，你可能无法接收到全部完整的数据，而如果发送的数据少于缓冲区的大小，那么很显然你的内存会比别人消耗的更快。更为严重的时，如果你要发送一副图片，图片容量可能根据内容的不同而各有千秋，容量也不止256Byte这么小，该如何精确控制缓冲区呢？

其实我们可以很容易的解决这个问题，就像很多文件格式所做的事情一样，我们可以在Stream的前几个字节写入实际有效数据的长度，然后根据这个长度来分配内存，再读取内容，我所做的客户端与服务器之间传递屏幕的源代码如下：
