Is There Any Way Without File.ReadAllText?

Question

Hello,

As I love to develop file I/O applications and my new development platform is Windows Mobile. Is there any way to read all the file, without using File.ReadAllText? Because Windows Mobile don't have this function.

Answer 1

Write your own:

static string ReadAllText(string path) {
    using (var r = new StreamReader(path)) {
        return r.ReadToEnd();
    }
}

Answer 2

A lot of the file operations are supported by the mobile framework, for example:

string text;
using (StreamReader reader = File.OpenText(fileName)) {
   text = reader.ReadToEnd();
}
