StreamWriter not working
I am trying to generate an output file using StreamWriter in C# which contains Credit Card (CC) numbers. As long as the CC Number is 15 digits long, the StreamWriter works just fine. But when the CC Number length is 16 digits long, the StreamWriter replaces the last digit with 0 (zero). Any idea how to fix it? Please try to help.
Thank you very much in advance!
Unfortunately I am not allowed to post the code here. But the code is not different from other codes. There is no parsing. Just writing the data as it is. This code in use for the last 15 years. It happens only if the CC Number is more than 15 digits long. So up to 15 digits I am not getting any issue. Any digits more than 15 are replaced with 0s. Hope that helps. I think there is some limitation with the StreamWriter.
Thank you!
I totally get that you cannot post all of your code here but can you at least post a dummy sample that replicates the issue?
How to set the buffer size of the StreamWriter?
It is able to write even greater strings without any problem. Only problem is with number longer than 15 digits. How come it is possible?
Thank you!
