System.IO.StreamReader Class

Description

A StreamReader object allows character data to be read from a stream using either default or specified encoding.

The source may be a stream, a file or just a path that supports streaming. Optionally, the buffer size may be specified.

Syntax

Constructor Create (	FileOrPath : String );
Constructor Create (	FileOrPath : String; DataEncoding : System.Text.Encoding );
Constructor Create (	FileOrPath : String; DetectEncodingFromByteOrderMarks : Boolean );
Constructor Create (	FileOrPath : String; DataEncoding : System.Text.Encoding; DetectEncodingFromByteOrderMarks : Boolean );
Constructor Create (	FileOrPath : String; DataEncoding : System.Text.Encoding; DetectEncodingFromByteOrderMarks : Boolean; BufferSize : Integer );
Constructor Create (	TargetStream : Stream );
Constructor Create (	TargetStream : Stream; DetectEncodingFromByteOrderMarks : Boolean );
Constructor Create (	TargetStream : Stream; DataEncoding : System.Text.Encoding );
Constructor Create (	TargetStream : Stream; DataEncoding : System.Text.Encoding; DetectEncodingFromByteOrderMarks : Boolean );
Constructor Create (	TargetStream : Stream; DataEncoding : System.Text.Encoding; DetectEncodingFromByteOrderMarks : Boolean );
Constructor Create (	TargetStream : Stream; DataEncoding : System.Text.Encoding; DetectEncodingFromByteOrderMarks : Boolean; BufferSize : Integer );

Methods

	Close	Closes the StreamReader
	Peek	Gives the value of the next character in the stream without updating position
	Read	Reads the next character or block of characters from the current stream
	ReadLine	Reads a line of text from the current stream
	ReadToEnd	Reads the remaining stream contents into a string
