In the .NET Framework version 2.0 release, the recommended practice is to create XmlWriter instances using the XmlWriter.Create method and the XmlWriterSettings class. This allows you to take full advantage of all the new features introduced in this release. For more information, see Creating XML Writers. |
Any elements or attributes left open are automatically closed.
This method does not throw any exceptions.
The following example writes an XML fragment.
using System; using System.IO; using System.Xml; public class Sample { public static void Main() { //Create a writer to write XML to the console. XmlTextWriter writer = null; writer = new XmlTextWriter (Console.Out); //Use indentation for readability. writer.Formatting = Formatting.Indented; writer.Indentation = 4; //Write an element (this one is the root). writer.WriteStartElement("book"); //Write the title element. writer.WriteStartElement("title"); writer.WriteString("Pride And Prejudice"); writer.WriteEndElement(); //Write the close tag for the root element. writer.WriteEndElement(); //Write the XML to file and close the writer. writer.Close(); } }
