XDocument.Save Method (XmlWriter)

The following example shows how to save an XDocument to an XmlWriter.

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
XmlWriterSettings xws = new XmlWriterSettings();
xws.OmitXmlDeclaration = true;
xws.Indent = true;

using (XmlWriter xw = XmlWriter.Create(sb, xws)) {
    XDocument doc = new XDocument(
        new XElement("Child",
            new XElement("GrandChild", "some content")
        )
    );
    doc.Save(xw);
}

Console.WriteLine(sb.ToString());

This example produces the following output:

<Child>
  <GrandChild>some content</GrandChild>
</Child>
