c# - Is file empty check

Question

How do I check if a file is empty in C#?

I need something like:

if (file is empty)
{
    // do stuff
}

else
{
    // do other stuff
}

Answer 1

Use FileInfo.Length:

if( new FileInfo( "file" ).Length == 0 )
{
  // empty
}

Check the Exists property to find out, if the file exists at all.
