Delphi to C#

Posted 11 November 2010 - 01:50 PM

Can any one help me to convert this delphi code to C#. 

class function TShrinkConfig.MyVersion: WORD;
var
  ini: TIniFile;
begin
  ini := TIniFile.Create(gsIniFile);
  Result := ini.ReadInteger(
      SHRINK_INI_SETUP_SECTION,
      SHRINK_INI_MYVERSION,
      SHRINK_INI_VERSION_1);

  ini.Free;
end;

if (not ini.ValueExists(SHRINK_INI_VERSIONS_SECTION, IntToStr(version))) then
....

I searched online that TiniFile corresponds to FileStream in C#.
But i am not able to understand and convert it into C#.

Help would be really appreciated.

MOD EDIT: When posting code...USE CODE TAGS!!!

:code:

Actually, they not. FileStream in C# doesn't have the capability to manipulate ini files in the same way TIniFile class does. So, you have to build your own class that reads an ini file and does some actions. There is no simple, equivalent code for your issue.

Ok
So is there any method to read or write or search values from ini file ?

I think you can use a Streamreader for that.

Furthermore, I know there are some tutorials of reading and writing a file in the C# tutorials section, but I am not sure where.

For information about the streamreader, you can find that here:

Not C# managed code, but you can use P/Invoke and GetPrivateProfileString.

Maybe this article will help. shown functions only support strings. Simply add type checking into the class before you write to the ini file (or after in case of reading).
