c# - Stream to string -

how append stream output string instead of file in code?

httpwebresponse res = (httpwebresponse)httprequest.getresponse();  using (stream output = file.openwrite(@"c:\temp\tmp.html"))                    using (stream input = res.getresponsestream()) {     byte[] buffer = new byte[8192];     int bytesread;     while ((bytesread = input.read(buffer, 0, buffer.length)) > 0)     {         output.write(buffer, 0, bytesread);     }     input.close();     output.close(); }   

you can use streamreader:

httpwebresponse res = (httpwebresponse)httprequest.getresponse();  using (stream input = res.getresponsestream()) using (var streamreader = new streamreader(input)) {     string result = streamreader.readtoend(); }  

note read entire string memory.
