what's the .net replacement for ios::nocreate

[HLSL fan]

In the new VC++ 7.0 ios::nocreate is obsolete. Does any one know what
I should do to achieve the same goal? I really want to check if a
file exists before reading from it.

Thanks in advance.

Try asking in a .net newsgroup. Check the news.microsoft.com server for
available newsgroups.

There is no need for nocreate. If you open a file for reading and the file
doesn't exist, then the open will fail. Nocreate is the default if you like.
