Description
System.IO.FileStream is used for reading and writing files on a file system, as well as other file-related operating system handles such as pipes, standard input, standard output. System.IO.FileStream buffers input and output for better performance.
The System.IO.FileStream class can open a file in one of two modes, either synchronously or asynchronously, with significant performance consequences for the synchronous methods (System.IO.FileStream.Read and System.IO.File-Stream.Write) and the asynchronous methods (System.IO.FileStream.BeginRead and System.IO.FileStream.BeginWrite). Both sets of methods will work in either mode; however, the mode will affect the performance of these methods. System.IO.FileStream defaults to opening files ...
