Stream Data to Filter

By default, Filter uses temporary files during communication. It creates the temporary file to process, and uses further temporary files to store the filtered data and send it back only when the process is complete.

When running out-of-process, you can configure KeyView to stream the file data while it processes it, rather than creating temporary files, by modifying the formats.ini file. This method has a number of advantages:

To run Filter in streaming mode, set the streaming_method parameter in the [FilterSDK_Config] section of the formats.ini file to pipe.

By default this parameter is set to temp_file, which uses temporary files during the filter process.
