Question

I am writting an app to dump content into files.

The flow, so far is this:

1 - User enters a Path

2 - App checks if the Directory Exists and if i have Writting Permissions

 2.a - If if exists, creates a empty file inside and closes it
 2.b - If it does not, creates the directory and the file inside it, and closes the file

The problem is, once i reach the point when i actually have to write content in this file i previously created i can’t write a single line , it throws me a “Access to Path Denied”.

Here is the code snippet related to the issue :

        // Writting ImgPixels to file

        if (BDC.BDCCommons.CommonUtils.DirectoryHasWritePermissions(folderPath))
        {
            using (StreamWriter filePointer = File.AppendText(folderPath))
            {
                filePointer.WriteLine(imgPixels);
            }
        }
        else
        {
            LogWriter.Error ("Permissão Negada", "Diretorio [ " + folderPath + "] nao tem permissao de escrita");
        }

What might be causing this ?!
Thanks in advance Guys

Change:

using (StreamWriter filePointer = File.AppendText(folderPath))

to

using (StreamWriter filePointer = File.AppendText(Path.Combine(folderPath, fileName)))
