Examples

The following example shows how to open a file in the application data as a Stream in a Windows Store app, and write to it by using an instance of the StreamWriter class. It then reads the contents for the file by using an instance of the StreamReader class.

{
    public sealed partial class BlankPage : Page
    {
        public BlankPage()
        {
            this.InitializeComponent();
        }

        private async void CreateButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            using (StreamWriter writer =
                new StreamWriter(await ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder.OpenStreamForWriteAsync(
                "testfile.txt",  CreationCollisionOption.OpenIfExists)))
            {
                await writer.WriteLineAsync("new entry");
                await writer.WriteLineAsync(UserText.Text);
            }
        }

        private async void VerifyButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            StorageFile openedFile = await ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder.GetFileAsync("testfile.txt");
            using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(await openedFile.OpenStreamForReadAsync()))
            {
                Results.Text = await reader.ReadToEndAsync();
            }
        }
    }

Remarks

These extension methods are available only when you develop Windows Store apps. The methods provide convenient ways of opening files for reading or writing in Windows Store apps. You do not create an instance of the WindowsRuntimeStorageExtensions class; instead, you use these methods from instances of the IStorageFile and IStorageFolder interfaces.

The WindowsRuntimeStorageExtensions class contains two methods that extend IStorageFile for reading or writing:

The WindowsRuntimeStorageExtensions class contains two methods that extend IStorageFolder for reading and writing:

Methods

OpenStreamForReadAsync(IStorageFile)	Retrieves a stream for reading from a specified file.
OpenStreamForReadAsync(IStorageFolder, String)	Retrieves a stream for reading from a file in the specified parent folder.
OpenStreamForWriteAsync(IStorageFile)	Retrieves a stream for writing to a specified file.
OpenStreamForWriteAsync(IStorageFolder, String, CreationCollisionOption)	Retrieves a stream for writing to a file in the specified parent folder.
