.NET Framework - Encoding Text für writing a textfile

Asked By Martin Fischer

Hi everybody,

i have a problem with teh StreamWriter Object. I want to force the Stream to
write an ANSI-text. For reading from an filestream i can define the type of
ASCI by setting
System.Text.Encoding.Default.

What about Wrting Textdate ? The result seems to be UTF7 -Charset, but no
real ANSI.

Any hint for me ?

What "type of ASCII"?  There's only one ASCII.  How do you set
System.Text.Encoding.Default, given that it's a read-only property?

As far as the StreamWriter goes, you can specify an encoding via the
constructor when you instantiate the StreamWriter.

Thanks a lot. Thats what i ve been searching for ...

I have been trying to create a StreamWriter-Object without creating a
previos filestram, and in this structure i didnt find a way to specify the
Encodeng ....

Wish you a nice weekend.

Why there's no StreamWriter(String, Encoding) overload, I don't know.  But
there are other overloads for the StreamWriter constructor that take a
file name and an encoding.  For example:
