C# Reading a File

 / Published in: C#
 

This is how I read a file using C#.

Expand | Embed | Plain Text 
  1. string DeathStarPlans = @"C:\DeathStarPlans.txt";
  2.  
  3. StringBuilder R2D2 = new StringBuilder();
  4.  
  5. using ( StreamReader PrincessLeia = new StreamReader( DeathStarPlans ) )
  6. {
  7. 	while ( PrincessLeia.Peek() >= 0 )
  8. 	{
  9. 		R2D2.Append( PrincessLeia.ReadLine() );
  10. 	}
  11. }

// my version of reading a file:

using ( StreamReader PrincessLeia = new StreamReader( DeathStarPlans ) ) { string R2D2 = PrincessLeia.ReadToEnd(); }

That works too, but I like to Peek just in case I need to do something for each line. Thanks for the feedback.
