It's only a short code, but believe me.. it saves a lot of time and is very useful.
- What it does.
Grabs every piece of data within a file or from a position and length, then returns it to a string.
[COLOR="#0000FF"]public string[/COLOR] GetData([COLOR="#0000FF"]string[/COLOR] directory)
{
[COLOR="#0000FF"]using[/COLOR] ([COLOR="#40E0D0"]StreamReader[/COLOR] Reader = [COLOR="#0000FF"]new[/COLOR] [COLOR="#40E0D0"]StreamReader[/COLOR](directory))
{
[COLOR="#0000FF"]string[/COLOR] readData = Reader.ReadToEnd();
Reader.Close();
[COLOR="#0000FF"]return[/COLOR] readData;
}
}
Example of usage:
[COLOR="#40E0D0"]MessageBox[/COLOR].Show( GetData( [COLOR="#40E0D0"]Application[/COLOR].StartUpPath + [COLOR="#B22222"]"\\mydocument.txt"[/COLOR] );
Ouput:
any data which was in mydocument.txt.

or...
or if you wanted to return it as a string.
Edit: Syntax Fixed, I was tired when I wrote lmfao.
public static byte[] getBytes(string directory)
{
byte[] Bytes = system.io.File.ReadAllBytes(directory);
return Bytes;
}
or if you wanted to return it as a string.
public static string getBytes(string directory)
{
byte[] Bytes = system.io.File.ReadAllBytes(directory);
return system.text.asciiencoding.ascii.getString(Bytes);
}

To open text use ReadAllText method in System.IO namespace, File class

He wanted to read all the bytes.
By "reading" a text file he meant like a stream.
ie:
byte[] header = stream.readBytes(24);
byte[] fileSize = stream.readInt32();
byte[] fileSize = stream.readLong(2);
etc.

Just saying, when you are dealing with bytes and you don't have a lot of them, give it the name buffer as buffer deals with bytes. byte[] buffer = ?
