FileStream Class
Part of my 2008 study notes for exam 70-536 (.NET Framework 2.0).
Overview
- Provides a file specific implementation of a Stream.
Good practice
- Remember to call Close on a stream.
Examples
Read a File
// FileStream is simply a stream around a file, overriding Stream methods
FileStream a = new FileStream(@"C:\Public\Test.txt", FileMode.Open);
while (a.Position != a.Length)
{
Console.Write((char)a.ReadByte());
}
