i want to read from a text file in C#. But I want all the lines in the file to be concatenated into one line.
for example if i have in the file as
ABCD
EFGH
I need to read ABCDEFGH as one line.
I can do this by reading one line at a time from the file and concatenating that line to a string in a loop. But are there any faster method to do this?
string.Join(" ", File.ReadAllLines("path"));
Replace " " with "" or any other alternative "line-separator"
Example file:
some line
some other line
and yet another one
With " " as separator: some line some other line and yet another one
With "" as separator: some linesome other lineand yet another one
Use this:
using (System.IO.StreamReader myFile = new System.IO.StreamReader("test.txt")) {
string myString = myFile.ReadToEnd().Replace(Environment.NewLine, "");
}
string file = File.ReadAllText("text.txt").Replace("\r\n", " ");
What is a one line for you?
If you want to put the entire content of a file into a string, you could do
string fileContent = File.ReadAllText(@"c:\sometext.txt");
If you want your string without newline characters you could do
fileContent = fileContent.Replace(Environment.NewLine, " ");
string.Replace just calls some opaque CLR method, so I was not able to compare it with string.Join implementation.
