Receive Text up to a Match into a StringBuilder

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates Socket.ReceiveUntilMatchSb, which receives bytes until an exact byte sequence is found and appends the received text to a StringBuilder.

-- Important: See this note about string length limitations for strings returned by sp_OAMethod calls.
