flush works , but there is a time issue.

[raulavi]

(a little more info)
after flushing the line (instead of closing streamwirter)
it takes some x time to flush the line
so, when I read from the file I cannot find the last written line.

if I close the streamwriter it does find the line always.
but , my next write fails "Cannot write to a closed TextWriter"

Flushing the StreamWriter doesn't flush the underlying FileStream. You
have to flush that after flushing the StreamWriter for the line to end
up in the file.

Thanks Peter and Goran,

I will test it.

StreamWriter writer = ...;

writer.Flush();
writer.BaseStream.Flush();

[raulavi]

writer.BaseStream.Flush();

is the solution... at least for my prototype. Lets see the real thing..

thanks againg to all.
