How to write contents of one file to another file?
using (FileStream stream = File.OpenRead("C:\\file1.txt"))
using (FileStream writeStream = File.OpenWrite("D:\\file2.txt"))
{
BinaryReader reader = new BinaryReader(stream);
BinaryWriter writer = new BinaryWriter(writeStream);
// create a buffer to hold the bytes
byte[] buffer = new Byte[1024];
int bytesRead;
// while the read method returns bytes
// keep writing them to the output stream
while ((bytesRead =
stream.Read(buffer, 0, 1024)) > 0)
{
writeStream.Write(buffer, 0, bytesRead);
}
}
Just wonder why not to use this:
File.Copy("C:\\file1.txt", "D:\\file2.txt");
You should be using File.Copy
unless you want to append to the second file.
If you want to append you can still use the File class.
string content = File.ReadAllText("C:\\file1.txt");
File.AppendAllText("D:\\file2.txt",content);
This works for file with small size as entire file in loaded into the memory.
