Parameters

id
A System.Uri containing the absolute or relative URI identifying the record.

type
The type of the payload.

typeFormat
One of TypeFormat values that specifies the format of the payload type.

Return Value

The DimeRecord with the specified values.

Exceptions

Exception type	Condition
System.ArgumentNullException	The id or type is null .
System.InvalidOperationException	Either the DIME message has been closed. -or- A last record has already been written for this DIME message.

System.ArgumentNullException

The id or type is null .

System.InvalidOperationException

Either the DIME message has been closed.

-or-

A last record has already been written for this DIME message.

Remarks

Use the LastRecord method when it is known that the last DimeRecordof the DIME message is being written. No further records should be written after the LastRecord is called. When the NewRecord method is used to create the last record containing a positive payload length, Close will then be called and an additional empty last record will be appended to the DIME message. This occurs, for example, when the size of the message is not known and its payload is being chunked.
