Examples

The following example appends text to a file and reads from the file.

using namespace System;
using namespace System::IO;

int main()
{
   FileInfo^ fi = gcnew FileInfo( "c:\\MyTest.txt" );
   
   // This text is added only once to the file.
   if (  !fi->Exists )
   {
      //Create a file to write to.
      StreamWriter^ sw = fi->CreateText();
      try
      {
         sw->WriteLine( "Hello" );
         sw->WriteLine( "And" );
         sw->WriteLine( "Welcome" );
      }
      finally
      {
         if ( sw )
            delete (IDisposable^)sw;
      }
   }
   
   // This text will always be added, making the file longer over time
   // if it is not deleted.
   StreamWriter^ sw = fi->AppendText();
   try
   {
      sw->WriteLine( "This" );
      sw->WriteLine( "is Extra" );
      sw->WriteLine( "Text" );
   }
   finally
   {
      if ( sw )
         delete (IDisposable^)sw;
   }
   
   //Open the file to read from.
   StreamReader^ sr = fi->OpenText();
   try
   {
      String^ s = "";
      while ( s = sr->ReadLine() )
      {
         Console::WriteLine( s );
      }
   }
   finally

         delete (IDisposable^)sr;
   }
}

The following example demonstrates appending text to the end of a file and also displays the result of the append operation to the console. The first time this routine is called, the file is created if it does not exist. After that, the specified text is appended to the file.

using namespace System;
using namespace System::IO;
int main()
{

   FileInfo^ fi = gcnew FileInfo( "temp.txt" );

   // Create a writer, ready to add entries to the file.
   StreamWriter^ sw = fi->AppendText();
   sw->WriteLine( "Add as many lines as you like..." );
   sw->WriteLine( "Add another line to the output..." );
   sw->Flush();
   sw->Close();

   // Get the information out of the file and display it.
   // Remember that the file might have other lines if it already existed.
   StreamReader^ sr = gcnew StreamReader( fi->OpenRead() );
   while ( sr->Peek() != -1 )
      Console::WriteLine( sr->ReadLine() );
//This code produces output similar to the following;
//results may vary based on the computer/file structure/etc.:
//Add as many lines as you like...
//Add another line to the output...

}

using System;
using System.IO;

public class AppendTextTest
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        FileInfo fi = new FileInfo("temp.txt");
        // Create a writer, ready to add entries to the file.
        StreamWriter sw = fi.AppendText();
        sw.WriteLine("Add as many lines as you like...");
        sw.WriteLine("Add another line to the output...");
        sw.Flush();
        sw.Close();
        // Get the information out of the file and display it.
        // Remember that the file might have other lines if it already existed.
        StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(fi.OpenRead());
        while (sr.Peek() != -1)
            Console.WriteLine( sr.ReadLine() );
    }
}
//This code produces output similar to the following;
//results may vary based on the computer/file structure/etc.:
