StreamReader returning another char
- by Fernando
I'm trying to read the content of a file with a StreamReader, that receives a FileStream. The file has some spaces inside (char 32) and the StreamReader is reading them as 0 (char 48). The screenshot shows the FileStream buffer and the StreamReader buffer. Both have the value 32, but when I call Read(), it returns 48. Am I missing something here? By the way, the code is running under .NET Compact Framework.
The code that reads the data:
public void Read() {
using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(InputStream, Encoding.ASCII)) {
foreach (var property in DataObject.EnumerateProperties()) {
OffsetInfo offset = property.GetTextOffset();
reader.BaseStream.Position = offset.Start - 1;
StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder(offset.Size);
int count = 0;
while (reader.Peek() >= 0 && count < offset.Size) {
char c = (char)reader.Read();
if ((int)c != 32 && c != '\r' && c != '\n') {
builder.Append(c);
count++;
} else {
reader.BaseStream.Position++;
}
}
property.SetValue(DataObject,
Convert.ChangeType(builder.ToString(), property.PropertyType, CultureInfo.CurrentCulture),
null
);
}
}
}
