In this C# file handling tutorial series, you’ll learn how to perform essential file operations such as reading and writing various file formats including text, binary, and CSV. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the end of the tutorial series, you’ll gain the expertise and knowledge needed to handle files and streams in the C# applications effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this section, you’ll learn how to perform common file operations such as copying a file, moving a file to a new location, and deleting a file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this section, you’ll learn how to read an entire text file into a string, or an array of strings. If the text file is large, you’ll learn how to read it line by line using a stream. Also, you’ll learn how to write a text file effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Working with CSV (Comma-separated values) files is one of the most common tasks in data processing and analysis. By using CSV files, you can store tabular data simply, making them a widely used format for applications. This section shows you how to read and write CSV files effectively using the CSVHelper library.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this section, you’ll learn how to directories effectively including creating, moving, and deleting directories within a file system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Directory.Exists()<\/code> static method.<\/li>\n\n\n\n- Creating a new directory<\/a> – learns how to create a new directory if it does not exist using the
Directory.CreateDirectory()<\/code> static method.<\/li>\n\n\n\n- Moving a directory <\/a> – shows you how to move a directory and all of its contents to a new location using the
Directory.Move()<\/code> static method.<\/li>\n\n\n\n- Deleting a directory<\/a> – guides you on how to delete a directory and optionally all of its subdirectories and files using the
Directory.Delete()<\/code> static method.<\/li>\n\n\n\n- Listing directory<\/a> – shows you how to find subdirectories in a directory that match specified criteria.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Listing files in a directory<\/a> – learns how to list files that match specified criteria.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
Section 5. Monitoring file system<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
This section shows you how to use the FileSystemWatcher class in C# to monitor file system changes in real time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
