Name

TextReader

Synopsis

This class is optimized to read a stream of sequential characters. The Read( ) methods read data from the front of a stream, and Peek( ) looks at the first character without advancing the position of an associated stream. If you need a thread-safe TextReader, use Synchronized( ) to create a thread-safe copy of a TextReader.

public abstract class TextReader : MarshalByRefObject, IDisposable {
// Protected Constructors
   protected TextReader( );
// Public Static Fields
   public static readonly TextReader Null;            
// =System.IO.TextReader+NullTextReader
                  // Public Static Methods
   public static TextReader Synchronized(TextReader reader);
// Public Instance Methods
   public virtual void Close( );

   public virtual int ReadBlock(in char[ ] buffer, int index, int count);
   public virtual string ReadLine( );
