\"\"If you’re still stuck on .NET 2.0, 3.0, or 3.5 for any reason and don’t have access to the .CopyTo<\/code>\u00a0method for System.IO.Stream<\/code>\u00a0objects, the Stream.CopyTo<\/code>\u00a0extension method, available as a small NuGet package will make manually allocating buffers and other boilerplate associated with copying a buffer from one stream to another a thing of the past.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Stream.CopyTo<\/code>\u00a0is as simple as a NuGet package could be, but it let’s you use .NET 4.0’s Stream.CopyTo<\/code> method<\/a>\u00a0on earlier versions of the framework. It too resides in the System.IO<\/code>\u00a0namespace and provides the same functions (and overrides) as the official .NET 4.0+ version of its namesake, meaning it’s a drop-in replacement perfect for publishing multi-targeted code, etc. that “just works” on all versions of the .NET Framework.<\/p>\n

As with all our other NuGet publications, Stream.CopyTo<\/code>\u00a0is fully open-source and published on GitHub<\/a> under the terms of the MIT license. To make life easier, it’s also available on NuGet<\/a>, making it a single Visual Studio package manager (console) install away.<\/p>\n
