| TextReader: Peek |
Returns the next character from the stream without advancing to the next characters.
Public Function Peek ( ) As Long
The Peek method returns an integer value in order to determine whether the end of the file, or another error has occurred. This allows a user to first check if the returned value is -1 before casting it to a Integer type.
The current position of the TextReader is not changed by this operation. The returned value is -1 if no more characters are available.
If the returned value is not -1 then use the Char.ConvertFromInt32 method to convert to an Integer character.
