Encrypt streamwriter?

[cpopham]

I am using the following statements:

 

[c]

Dim ps As New ProcessStartInfo("C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin\mysqldump.exe", "-u root -pchecli02 myacct")

ps.UseShellExecute = False

ps.RedirectStandardOutput = True

Dim p As Process

p = New Process

p.StartInfo = ps

p.Start()

Dim sw As New System.IO.StreamWriter("C:\test23.sql")

sw.Write(p.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd())

p.WaitForExit()

[/c]

 

Is there anyway to encrypt this streamwriter to a file instead of writing to the file and then encrypting the file and writing it back down?

 

Thanks, Chester

System.Security.Cryptography.CryptoStream should do what you need.
