Reading a FileStream from an aspx page

I retrieving a document from SharePoint 2010 using the Client OM. I'm able to retrieve the document using 

var spFileInfo = Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.File.OpenBinaryDirect(<SPContext>, <documentPath>);

This return a type ConnectStream. I'm then transferring the ConnectStream into a FileStream like so:

using (var fs = new FileStream(<documentName> + ".pdf", FileMode.OpenOrCreate))
  {
       spFileInfo.Stream.CopyTo(fs);
  }

This does write a physical file to the local file system, but I'm hoping to avoid this in the future. Now I have a FileStream of a PDF document in my codebehind. I also have a UserControl to display PDF in the aspx page. From the codebehind the UserControl accepts the file path like so: 

<userControlName>.FilePath = <url>;

Is there a way to link the fs object to the file path for the UserControl?

Please let me know if more detail is needed,Thanks.

If you want to pass stream object then you have to create a public property of Stream type in UserControl.

Define the property in UserControl,

public System.IO.Stream InputStream {get;set;}

and assign the reference of stream object from within the code-behind of host (.aspx or .ascx) of UserControl.

UserControl1.InputStream=stream;
