Can any one help me to convert this delphi code to C#.

class function TShrinkConfig.MyVersion: WORD;
var
ini: TIniFile;
begin
ini := TIniFile.Create(gsIniFile);
Result := ini.ReadInteger(
SHRINK_INI_SETUP_SECTION,
SHRINK_INI_MYVERSION,
SHRINK_INI_VERSION_1);

ini.Free;
end;

if (not ini.ValueExists(SHRINK_INI_VERSIONS_SECTION, IntToStr(version))) then
....

I searched online that TiniFile corresponds to FileStream in C#.
But i am not able to understand and convert it into C#.

Help would be really appreciated.

OP's fake answer:
Ok kool .. This should work.
But i have seen that it has methods for reading and writing into INI.
But if i want to do something like check if value exists.
Is there any way for that.

Thanks for the replies.

I think that TIniFile doesn't corresponds to FileStream: probably it is related to the old .ini files which are deprecated and not directly supported in the .NET Framework.
However you can access them using the P/Invoke; the Win32 API that you need is GetPrivateProfileInt[^]

Then type ini in the search box and press enter!
Voila, lots of IniFile implementations!

You probably need a C# wrapper class around Win32 INI file API. Have a look at this CodeProject's article: "An INI file handling class using C#"[^].
