Hi Chris,

I've done as you said and everything seems to be working well now. Thanks for your help!

Hi Dizel,

The full .NET Framework will ensure that a FileStream object is disposed of by any wrapper objects that get created (e.g. StreamWriter etc). Because of this, it isn't necessary to call dispose (via a using statement) on a wrapped FileStream since the wrapper will do it for you. Of course, in the interests of readability and consistency it is good practice to always explicitly declare your intentions on a FileStream with either a using statement or a try/finally block. However, I'm not sure if NETMF behaves the same way as its big brother on this.

At any rate, it appears that instead of your StreamWriter instance wrapping your FileStream object both are wrapping the shared file path. This indicates to me you have two Stream derived objects competing for the same resource at the same time.

Try this:

using (FileStream file = new FileStream(fileWrite, FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.ReadWrite))
using (StreamWriter wr = new StreamWriter(file))
{
    wr.WriteLine("Hello");
    wr.WriteLine("StreamWriter");
}

Take care,

Nathan
