filestream

My component will receive a pdf file as a filestream from which I will need to create a file.

For testing purposes I am trying to read a file using the filestream object and recreate it at a different location. But the recreated file is created blank. the recreated file has the same number of pages though...

This is the code

StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(_filePath);
str = sr.ReadToEnd();
File.WriteAllText(@"C:\recreated.pdf", str);

what am I doing wrong?

Dynamic Type to do away with Reflection

The dynamic type in C# 4.0 is a welcome addition to the language. One thing I’ve been doing a lot with it is to remove explicit Reflection code that’s often necessary when you ‘dynamically’ need to walk and object hierarchy. In the past I’ve had a number of ReflectionUtils that used string based expressions… >>> More
