To open and read a text file on Android in C#, you can use the StreamReader
class to open the file and read its contents. Here’s an example of how you can do this:
Copy codeusing System.IO;
// Open the file using a StreamReader
using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader("path/to/file.txt"))
{
// Read the file contents and print them to the console
string contents = reader.ReadToEnd();
Console.WriteLine(contents);
}
This code uses the StreamReader
to open the file at the specified path, and then reads the entire contents of the file using the ReadToEnd
method. You can then do something with the file contents, such as printing them to the console or storing them in a variable.
You will need to make sure that your Android app has the necessary permissions to access the file. You can do this by adding the READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
permission to your app’s AndroidManifest.xml
file.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions or if there’s anything else I can do to assist.
