FileSystemProxy.OpenTextFileWriter Method

  • Reference

Definition

Namespace:
Microsoft.VisualBasic.MyServices
Assembly:
Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll
Assembly:
Microsoft.VisualBasic.Forms.dll

Opens a StreamWriter object to write to the specified file.

Overloads

OpenTextFileWriter(String, Boolean)

Opens a StreamWriter object to write to the specified file.
OpenTextFileWriter(String, Boolean, Encoding)

Opens a StreamWriter to write to the specified file.

OpenTextFileWriter(String, Boolean)

Opens a StreamWriter object to write to the specified file.

public:
 System::IO::StreamWriter ^ OpenTextFileWriter(System::String ^ file, bool append);
public System.IO.StreamWriter OpenTextFileWriter (string file, bool append);
member this.OpenTextFileWriter : string * bool -> System.IO.StreamWriter
Public Function OpenTextFileWriter (file As String, append As Boolean) As StreamWriter

Parameters

file
String

File to be written to.

append
Boolean

True to append to the contents of the file; False to overwrite the contents of the file. Default is False.

Returns

StreamWriter

StreamWriter object to write to the specified file.

Exceptions

ArgumentException

The file name ends with a trailing slash.

Examples

This example opens a StreamWriter with the My.Computer.FileSystem.OpenTextFileWriter method and uses it to write a string to a text file with the WriteLine method of the StreamWriter class.

Dim file = My.Computer.FileSystem.OpenTextFileWriter(
    "c:\test.txt", True)
file.WriteLine("Here is the first string.")
file.Close()

Remarks

The OpenTextFileWriter method opens and initializes a stream for a file and then returns the StreamWriter object for that stream. You can write to the steam as many times as necessary and then close it when you are finished.

Note

You must call the Close method on the StreamWriter object to make sure that all data is correctly written to the underlying stream.

If you are writing only a few strings to a file, it might be simpler to use the WriteAllText method.

The following table lists an example of a task involving the My.Computer.FileSystem.OpenTextFileWriter method.
