# Content Members

Content overview

#### Public Instance Properties

CreateOptions | The ContentCreateOptions object which should be applied to this object. Note that if none was provided to the factory method that created this Content instance, one may have been created with appropriate defaults for the content provided.
Rewindable | Indicates whether this Content instance is rewindable and therefore automatically retryable. If a content insertion (Session.insertContent(Content)) is interrupted and this method returns true, then the operation will automatically be restarted. If this method returns false, then an exception will be thrown immediately. If multiple Content objects are being inserted at once (Session.insertContent(Content[])) and any non-rewindable (Content object has already been even partially sent, the insert will fail immediately.
Uri | The URI with which this content should be inserted.

#### Public Instance Methods

Close | This method will be called after successfully consuming the content from the Stream returned by OpenDataStream(). This method need not close the stream, that is the responsibility of the client, but it may invalidate the stream. This method is to inform the implementation that any resources it may be holding can be released.
OpenDataStream | Return the byte stream that makes up this document. If the content is character data, as opposed to a binary BLOB, this should be a UTF-8 encoding of the characters. Each call to this method returns a stream positioned at the beginning of the content. The Stream object should be closed by the client. The returned Stream is not intended to be shared. Each call to this method implies that any prior state should be discarded and a new stream created that is positioned at the beginning of the content.
Rewind | This method tells the implementation that the content should be rewound to start again. This method will only be called if Rewindable is true and in that case only after OpenDataStream() has been called.
Size | The size of the content, in bytes, of the content. If the size cannot be determined at the time this method is invoked (if the content is streaming for example), then -1 is returned.
