}Usage
var engine = new FileHelperEngine<Customer>();
// To Read Use:
Customer[] res = engine.ReadFile("FileIn.txt");
// To Write Use:
engine.WriteFile("FileOut.txt", res);In almost every project there is a need to read/write data from/to a file of a specified format.
For example for log parsing, data warehouse and OLAP applications, communication between systems, file format transformations (for example from a fixed length to a CSV file).
This library aims to provide an easy and reliable way to accomplish this task.
