[Mono-dev] Read file under Linux?

[SamHellawell]

Hey there!

Basically, my C# project works perfectly well under Windows, and after
sorting out some GAC problems it *almost* works on Linux. I am stump however
as to how to open and read a file under Linux using Mono, i have tried
entering Linux paths and local paths. The file I wish to read is within the
same directly as the binary. If anybody could help me out, i'd greatly
appreciate it. The file i wish to load is called example.properties

My load function:

        public Boolean Load(string filename)
        {
            try
            {
                FileStream file = File.Open(filename, FileMode.Open);

                UTF8Encoding temp = new UTF8Encoding(true);
                string fileContents = "";

                byte[] b = new byte[1024];
                while (file.Read(b, 0, b.Length) > 0)
                {
                    fileContents += temp.GetString(b);
                }

                    string[] lineSplit = fileContents.Split((char)10);
                        
                    for(int i = 0; i < lineSplit.Length; i++)
                    {
                        props.Add(lineSplit[i].Split('=')[0],
lineSplit[i].Split('=')[1]);
                    }

                return true;
            }
            catch
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Unable to load properties file: " +
filename);
                return false;
            }
        }


Cheers, Sam.
