C# text file - how to write EOF character

Question

This has got to be an easy question but I'm not finding anything out there.

I have a text file. I need to put a EOF character at the end so a third party vendor can read the file correctly.

What is the escape character needed to write the end of file character?

I'm not sure if I need to supply any more information, but if I do, let me know.

Thanks

Answer 1

If you needs to place that EOF char anyways, you could go with:

yourStream.WriteByte(0x1A); // dec 26

Answer 2

Just use the StreamWriter class, and Close the file appropriately. The EOF marker will be handled properly for you.
