FileStream.Seek(Int64, SeekOrigin) Method

Definition

Sets the current position of this stream to the given value.

public:
 override long Seek(long offset, System::IO::SeekOrigin origin);
public override long Seek (long offset, System.IO.SeekOrigin origin);
override this.Seek : int64 * System.IO.SeekOrigin -> int64
Public Overrides Function Seek (offset As Long, origin As SeekOrigin) As Long

Parameters

offset
Int64

The point relative to origin from which to begin seeking.

origin
SeekOrigin

Specifies the beginning, the end, or the current position as a reference point for offset, using a value of type SeekOrigin.

Returns

The new position in the stream.

Exceptions

An I/O error occurred.

The stream does not support seeking, such as if the FileStream is constructed from a pipe or console output.

Seeking is attempted before the beginning of the stream.

Methods were called after the stream was closed.

Examples

The following example shows how to write data to a file, byte by byte, and then verify that the data was written correctly.

using namespace System;
using namespace System::IO;
int main()
{
   String^ fileName =  "Test@##@.dat";
   
   // Create random data to write to the file.
   array<Byte>^dataArray = gcnew array<Byte>(100000);
   (gcnew Random)->NextBytes( dataArray );
   FileStream^ fileStream = gcnew FileStream( fileName,FileMode::Create );
   try
   {
      
      // Write the data to the file, byte by byte.
      for ( int i = 0; i < dataArray->Length; i++ )
      {
         fileStream->WriteByte( dataArray[ i ] );

      }
      
      // Set the stream position to the beginning of the file.
      fileStream->Seek( 0, SeekOrigin::Begin );
      
      // Read and verify the data.
      for ( int i = 0; i < fileStream->Length; i++ )
      {
         if ( dataArray[ i ] != fileStream->ReadByte() )
         {
            Console::WriteLine( "Error writing data." );
            return  -1;
         }

      }
      Console::WriteLine( "The data was written to {0} "
      "and verified.", fileStream->Name );
   }
   finally
   {
      fileStream->Close();
   }

        // Create random data to write to the file.
        byte[] dataArray = new byte[100000];
        new Random().NextBytes(dataArray);

        using(FileStream
            fileStream = new FileStream(fileName, FileMode.Create))
        {
            // Write the data to the file, byte by byte.
            for(int i = 0; i < dataArray.Length; i++)
            {
                fileStream.WriteByte(dataArray[i]);
            }

            // Set the stream position to the beginning of the file.
            fileStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);

            // Read and verify the data.
            for(int i = 0; i < fileStream.Length; i++)
            {
                if(dataArray[i] != fileStream.ReadByte())
                {
                    Console.WriteLine("Error writing data.");
                    return;
                }
            }
            Console.WriteLine("The data was written to {0} " +
                "and verified.", fileStream.Name);

The following example reads text in the reverse direction, from the end of file to the beginning of the file, by using the various SeekOrigin values with the Seek method.

using System.IO;

public class FSSeek
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        long offset;
        int nextByte;

        // alphabet.txt contains "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"
        using (FileStream fs = new FileStream(@"c:\temp\alphabet.txt", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read))
        {
            for (offset = 1; offset <= fs.Length; offset++)
            {
                fs.Seek(-offset, SeekOrigin.End);
                Console.Write((char)fs.ReadByte());
            }
            Console.WriteLine();

            fs.Seek(20, SeekOrigin.Begin);

            while ((nextByte = fs.ReadByte()) > 0)
            {
                Console.Write((char)nextByte);
            }
            Console.WriteLine();
        }
    }
}
// This code example displays the following output:
//

// uvwxyz
open System.IO

// alphabet.txt contains "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"
using (new FileStream(@"c:\temp\alphabet.txt", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read)) (fun fs ->

        printf $"{fs.ReadByte() |> char}"

    printfn ""

    fs.Seek(20, SeekOrigin.Begin) |> ignore

    let mutable nextByte = fs.ReadByte()

    while nextByte > 0 do
        printf $"{char nextByte}"
        nextByte <- fs.ReadByte())

Remarks

This method overrides Stream.Seek.

Note

Use the FileStream.CanSeek property to determine whether the current instance supports seeking. For additional information, see Stream.CanSeek.

You can seek to any location beyond the length of the stream. When you seek beyond the length of the file, the file size grows. Data added to the end of the file is set to zero.

For a list of common file and directory operations, see Common I/O Tasks.
