Jan 23, 2015 at 16:49 comment added Heslacher For String.Empty I said should, because I think it is more readable on the first glance. To distinguish between "" and " " with not so good eyes is hard. For var I said could to show this possibility.
Jan 23, 2015 at 16:46 comment added Sam I'm also curious why you suggested me using the more verbose String.Empty instead of "", then recommended I use the less verbose var instead of the type name?
Jan 23, 2015 at 16:45 comment added Sam Thanks for the feedback. I tend to use if blocks without brackets if the condition only uses one line and there is no else condition. I had been using String.Empty for several years, but someone convinced me that "" is shorter and easier for JavaScript/Java people to read/understand. I'm a little embarrassed that I've been programming in C# for almost 10 years and didn't know about stacking usings. However, in this case the CryptoStream has to be disposed of before you can read from the memory stream.
