I have a StreamReader and a FileStream trying to access the same file (both readers are read-only).  I get an exception--but I figured I would.  Is there a way to get around this?  

Can two readers access the same file without an exception generated?

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).
