Reads a line of characters asynchronously from the current string and returns the data as a string.
public:
override System::Threading::Tasks::Task<System::String ^> ^ ReadLineAsync();
public override System.Threading.Tasks.Task<string> ReadLineAsync ();
public override System.Threading.Tasks.Task<string?> ReadLineAsync ();
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComVisible(false)]

[<System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComVisible(false)>]
override this.ReadLineAsync : unit -> System.Threading.Tasks.Task<string>
Public Overrides Function ReadLineAsync () As Task(Of String)
Returns
A task that represents the asynchronous read operation. The value of the TResult parameter contains the next line from the string reader, or is null if all the characters have been read.
- Attributes
Exceptions
The number of characters in the next line is larger than MaxValue.
The string reader has been disposed.
The reader is currently in use by a previous read operation.
Examples
The following example shows how to read one line at a time from a string asynchronously.
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Text;
namespace ConsoleApplication
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
ReadCharacters();
}
static async void ReadCharacters()
{
StringBuilder stringToRead = new StringBuilder();
stringToRead.AppendLine("Characters in 1st line to read");
stringToRead.AppendLine("and 2nd line");
stringToRead.AppendLine("and the end");
string readText;
using (StringReader reader = new StringReader(stringToRead.ToString()))
{
while ((readText = await reader.ReadLineAsync()) != null)
{
Console.WriteLine(readText);
}
}
}
}
}
// The example displays the following output:
//
// Characters in 1st line to read
// and 2nd line
// and the end
//
Imports System.IO
Imports System.Text
Module Module1
Sub Main()
ReadCharacters()
End Sub
Async Sub ReadCharacters()
Dim stringToRead = New StringBuilder()
stringToRead.AppendLine("Characters in 1st line to read")
stringToRead.AppendLine("and 2nd line")
stringToRead.AppendLine("and the end")
Using reader As StringReader = New StringReader(stringToRead.ToString())
Dim readText As String = Await reader.ReadLineAsync()
While Not IsNothing(readText)
Console.WriteLine(readText)
readText = Await reader.ReadLineAsync()
End While
End Using
End Sub
End Module
