# addStream method

Future addStream (Stream<T> source, { bool cancelOnError })
override

Receives events from `source` and puts them into this controller's stream.

Returns a future which completes when the source stream is done.

Events must not be added directly to this controller using add, addError, close or addStream, until the returned future is complete.

Data and error events are forwarded to this controller's stream. A done event on the source will end the `addStream` operation and complete the returned future.

If `cancelOnError` is true, only the first error on `source` is forwarded to the controller's stream, and the `addStream` ends after this. If `cancelOnError` is false, all errors are forwarded and only a done event will end the `addStream`. If `cancelOnError` is omitted, it defaults to false.

## Implementation

    Future addStream(Stream<T> source, {bool cancelOnError});
