Example

The following example reads a text file into a buffer and writes the buffer to the HTTP output stream.

Visual Basic

Dim MyFileStream As FileStream
 Dim FileSize As Long
 
 MyFileStream = New FileStream("sometext.txt", FileMode.Open)
 FileSize = MyFileStream.Length
 
 Dim Buffer(CInt(FileSize)) As Byte
 MyFileStream.Read(Buffer, 0, CInt(FileSize))
 MyFileStream.Close()
 
 Response.Write("<b>File Contents: </b>")
 Response.BinaryWrite(Buffer)

FileStream MyFileStream;
 long FileSize;
 
 MyFileStream = new FileStream("sometext.txt", FileMode.Open);
 FileSize = MyFileStream.Length;
      
 byte[] Buffer = new byte[(int)FileSize];
 MyFileStream.Read(Buffer, 0, (int)FileSize);
 MyFileStream.Close();
 
 Response.Write("<b>File Contents: </b>");
 Response.BinaryWrite(Buffer);

FileStream myFileStream;
long fileSize;

myFileStream = new FileStream("sometext.txt", FileMode.Open);
fileSize = myFileStream.get_Length();

ubyte buffer[] = new ubyte[(int)(fileSize)];
myFileStream.Read(buffer, 0, (int)(fileSize));
myFileStream.Close();

get_Response().Write("<b>File Contents: </b>");
get_Response().BinaryWrite(buffer);

JScript

var myFileStream : FileStream
var fileSize : long

myFileStream = new FileStream("sometext.txt", FileMode.Open)
fileSize = myFileStream.Length

var buffer : Byte[] = new Byte[int(fileSize)]
myFileStream.Read(buffer, 0, int(fileSize))
myFileStream.Close()

Response.Write("<b>File Contents: </b>")
Response.BinaryWrite(buffer)
