StreamReader and StreamWriter

• Rooster A.

  ok i tried but the file is different bytes again

  the source file is 38060 bytes

  the destination 38788 bytes , how could the destination file had a different bytes copied

  no idea, working well here :)

  if you want to copy a file, just do:

  System.IO.File.Copy(Source, Destination);

  if these are textfile, try this:

   

  Dim theReader as new StreamReader("file.txt") Dim theWriter as new StreamWriter("copyfile.txt")   theWriter.Write(theReader.ReadToEnd())   theWriter.Close() theReader.Close()

   

  or if you want to copy a file, just use:

   

  System.IO.File.Copy(source, dest);

  Dim sstream As New StreamReader("c:\EULA.txt")

  Dim sstream2 As New StreamWriter("e:\EULA.txt", FileMode.Create)

  Do Until sstream.Peek = -1

  sstream2.WriteLine(sstream.ReadLine)

  Loop

  sstream.Close()

  sstream.Close()

  more info:

  thank you very much it works, im just really curious why when u used streamreader[writer] class to copy files the bytes were different
  

• Roozbeh Sharafi

  no reason either :-P I guess everyone has their way of doing things. I was just going through your example and using that
