How do i open a StreamReader with FILE_SHARE_READ, FILE_SHARE_WRITE, FILE_SHARE_DELETE?
How do i open a StreamReader so that i can read an encoded text file, with sharing options so that another process can read the file?

In the .NET Framework class library there is a class called StreamReader. It is the only class designed to read "text", which is why it descends from the abstract base TextReader class. The TextReader/StreamReader allows you to specify the encoding used by the file you are trying to open, and can decode the file for you, returning Strings of text.
Once i've opened a file with the StreamReader:
var sr = new StreamReader(path);
The file is locked, with other processes unable to modify or delete the file. What i need is the equivalent of a FileStream class's FileShare enumeration:
Except that, for obvious reasons, i cannot use a FileStream - have to use a StreamReader.
How can i open a StreamReader with FileShare.ReadWrite | FileShare.Delete?

Read); //Create an object of StreamReader by passing FileStream object on which it needs to operates on StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(fs); //Use the ReadToEnd method to read all the content from file string fileContent = sr. ReadToEnd(); //Close the StreamReader object after operation sr. Close(); fs. Close();
C# StreamReader is used to read characters to a stream in a specified encoding. StreamReader. Read method reads the next character or next set of characters from the input stream. StreamReader is inherited from TextReader that provides methods to read a character, block, line, or all content.
StreamReader has a constructor that can take a stream. So instead of using the constructor that takes a string path, first create a FileStream with the options that you want, then pass that FileStream to the StreamReader constructor.
