Reads primitive data types as binary values in a specific encoding.

Writes primitive types in binary to a stream and supports writing strings in a specific encoding.

Adds a buffering layer to read and write operations on another stream. This class cannot be inherited.

Exposes static methods for creating, moving, and enumerating through directories and subdirectories. This class cannot be inherited.

Exposes instance methods for creating, moving, and enumerating through directories and subdirectories. This class cannot be inherited.

The exception that is thrown when part of a file or directory cannot be found.

Provides access to information on a drive.

The exception that is thrown when trying to access a drive or share that is not available.

Defines constants for drive types, including CDRom, Fixed, Network, NoRootDirectory, Ram, Removable, and Unknown.

The exception that is thrown when reading is attempted past the end of a stream.

Provides data for the System.IO.FileSystemWatcher.Error event.

Represents the method that will handle the System.IO.FileSystemWatcher.Error event of a System.IO.FileSystemWatcher object.

Provides static methods for the creation, copying, deletion, moving, and opening of files, and aids in the creation of System.IO.FileStream objects.

Defines constants for read, write, or read/write access to a file.

Provides attributes for files and directories.

Provides properties and instance methods for the creation, copying, deletion, moving, and opening of files, and aids in the creation of System.IO.FileStream objects. This class cannot be inherited.

The exception that is thrown when a managed assembly is found but cannot be loaded.

Specifies how the operating system should open a file.

The exception that is thrown when an attempt to access a file that does not exist on disk fails.

Represents advanced options for creating a System.IO.FileStream object.

Contains constants for controlling the kind of access other System.IO.FileStream objects can have to the same file.

Exposes a System.IO.Stream around a file, supporting both synchronous and asynchronous read and write operations.

Provides data for the directory events: System.IO.FileSystemWatcher.Changed, System.IO.FileSystemWatcher.Created, System.IO.FileSystemWatcher.Deleted.

Represents the method that will handle the System.IO.FileSystemWatcher.Changed, System.IO.FileSystemWatcher.Created, or System.IO.FileSystemWatcher.Deleted event of a System.IO.FileSystemWatcher class.

Provides the base class for both System.IO.FileInfo and System.IO.DirectoryInfo objects.

Listens to the file system change notifications and raises events when a directory, or file in a directory, changes.

Specifies whether the underlying handle is inheritable by child processes.

The exception thrown when the internal buffer overflows.

The exception that is thrown when a data stream is in an invalid format.

Sets the description visual designers can display when referencing an event, extender, or property.

The exception that is thrown when an I/O error occurs.

Creates a stream whose backing store is memory.

Specifies changes to watch for in a file or folder.

Performs operations on string instances that contain file or directory path information. These operations are performed in a cross-platform manner.

The exception that is thrown when a path or file name is longer than the system-defined maximum length.

Provides data for the System.IO.FileSystemWatcher.Renamed event.

Represents the method that will handle the System.IO.FileSystemWatcher.Renamed event of a System.IO.FileSystemWatcher class.

Specifies whether to search the current directory, or the current directory and all subdirectories.

Specifies the position in a stream to use for seeking.

Provides a generic view of a sequence of bytes. This is an abstract class.

Implements a System.IO.TextReader that reads characters from a byte stream in a particular encoding.

Implements a System.IO.TextWriter for writing characters to a stream in a particular encoding.

Implements a System.IO.TextReader that reads from a string.

Implements a System.IO.TextWriter for writing information to a string. The information is stored in an underlying System.Text.StringBuilder.

Represents a reader that can read a sequential series of characters.

Represents a writer that can write a sequential series of characters. This class is abstract.

Provides random access to unmanaged blocks of memory from managed code.

Provides access to unmanaged blocks of memory from managed code.

Contains information on the change that occurred.

Changes that might occur to a file or directory.
