Parameter
| Values | Description |
| "r" | Opens for reading. If the file does not exist or cannot be found, returns null. |
| "w" | Opens an empty file for writing. If the given file exists, its contents are destroyed. |
| "a" | Opens for writing at the end of the file (appending) without removing the EOF marker before writing new data to the file; creates the file first if it doesn't exist. |
| "r+" | Opens for both reading and writing. (The file must exist.) |
| "w+" | Opens an empty file for both reading and writing. If the given file exists, its contents are destroyed. |
| "a+" | Opens for reading and appending; the appending operation includes the removal of the EOF marker before new data is written to the file and the EOF marker is restored after writing is complete; creates the file first if it doesnĄ¯t exist. If neither of the parameters is specified, the method creates a temporary file for both reading and writing. After a calling of the close method, the temporary file is automatically deleted. The files are always opened in binary mode. |
Returns
Returns a new instance of the FileStream object. If failed, returns null. properties
