How to: Open and Append to a Log File

發行項

StreamWriter and StreamReader write characters to and read characters from streams. The following code example opens the log.txt file for input, or creates the file if it does not already exist, and appends information to the end of the file. The contents of the file are then written to standard output for display. As an alternative to this example, the information could be stored as a single string or string array, and the WriteAllText or WriteAllLines method could be used to achieve the same functionality.

Note
Visual Basic users may choose to use the methods and properties provided by the My.Application.Log or My.Computer.FileSystem objects for creating or writing to log files. For more information, see My.Application.Log Object and My.Computer.FileSystem Object.

        w.WriteLine("-------------------------------")
        ' Update the underlying file.
        w.Flush()
    End Sub
    Public Shared Sub DumpLog(ByVal r As StreamReader)
        ' While not at the end of the file, read and write lines.
        Dim line As String

        End While
        r.Close()

    {
        // While not at the end of the file, read and write lines.
        String line;
        while ((line=r.ReadLine())!=null)
