只使用方法Convert。ToBase64String

Convert.ToBase64String(inputStream.ToArray());

在这种情况下，如果你真的想在MemoryStream中简单地使用ReadToEnd方法，你可以使用这个扩展方法来实现:

public static class SetExtensions
{
    public static string ReadToEnd(this MemoryStream BASE)
    {
        BASE.Position = 0;
        StreamReader R = new StreamReader(BASE);
        return R.ReadToEnd();
    }
}

你可以这样使用这个方法:

using (MemoryStream m = new MemoryStream())
{
    //for example i want to serialize an object into MemoryStream
    //I want to use XmlSeralizer
    XmlSerializer xs = new XmlSerializer(_yourVariable.GetType());
    xs.Serialize(m, _yourVariable);

    //the easy way to use ReadToEnd method in MemoryStream
    MessageBox.Show(m.ReadToEnd());
}

使用StreamReader，然后你可以使用ReadToEnd方法返回一个字符串。

稍微修改了Brian的答案，允许可选的读启动管理，这似乎是最简单的方法。可能不是最有效的，但容易理解和使用。

Public Function ReadAll(ByVal memStream As MemoryStream, Optional ByVal startPos As Integer = 0) As String
    ' reset the stream or we'll get an empty string returned
    ' remember the position so we can restore it later
    Dim Pos = memStream.Position
    memStream.Position = startPos

    Dim reader As New StreamReader(memStream)
    Dim str = reader.ReadToEnd()

    ' reset the position so that subsequent writes are correct
    memStream.Position = Pos

    Return str
End Function

使用StreamReader将MemoryStream转换为字符串。

<Extension()> _
Public Function ReadAll(ByVal memStream As MemoryStream) As String
    ' Reset the stream otherwise you will just get an empty string.
    ' Remember the position so we can restore it later.
    Dim pos = memStream.Position
    memStream.Position = 0

    Dim reader As New StreamReader(memStream)
    Dim str = reader.ReadToEnd()

    ' Reset the position so that subsequent writes are correct.
    memStream.Position = pos

    Return str
End Function

这个示例展示了如何将字符串读写到MemoryStream。

Imports System.IO

Module Module1
  Sub Main()
    ' We don't need to dispose any of the MemoryStream 
    ' because it is a managed object. However, just for 
    ' good practice, we'll close the MemoryStream.
    Using ms As New MemoryStream
      Dim sw As New StreamWriter(ms)
      sw.WriteLine("Hello World")
      ' The string is currently stored in the 
      ' StreamWriters buffer. Flushing the stream will 
      ' force the string into the MemoryStream.
      sw.Flush()
      ' If we dispose the StreamWriter now, it will close 
      ' the BaseStream (which is our MemoryStream) which 
      ' will prevent us from reading from our MemoryStream
      'sw.Dispose()

      ' The StreamReader will read from the current 
      ' position of the MemoryStream which is currently 
      ' set at the end of the string we just wrote to it. 
      ' We need to set the position to 0 in order to read 
      ' from the beginning.
      ms.Position = 0
      Dim sr As New StreamReader(ms)
      Dim myStr = sr.ReadToEnd()
      Console.WriteLine(myStr)

      ' We can dispose our StreamWriter and StreamReader 
      ' now, though this isn't necessary (they don't hold 
      ' any resources open on their own).
      sw.Dispose()
      sr.Dispose()
    End Using

    Console.WriteLine("Press any key to continue.")
    Console.ReadKey()
  End Sub
End Module
