XmlTextWriter.Flush Method
Flushes whatever is in the buffer to the underlying streams and also flushes the underlying stream.
Namespace: System.Xml
Assembly: System.Xml (in System.Xml.dll)
 Note |
|---|
In the .NET Framework 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. |
This is called instead of Close when you want to write more to the underlying stream without losing what is still in the buffer.
The following example writes out two XML fragments.
using System; using System.IO; using System.Xml; public class Sample { public static void Main() { XmlTextWriter writer = new XmlTextWriter (Console.Out); //Use indenting for readability writer.Formatting = Formatting.Indented; //Write an XML fragment. writer.WriteStartElement("book"); writer.WriteElementString("title", "Pride And Prejudice"); writer.WriteEndElement(); writer.Flush(); //Write another XML fragment. writer.WriteStartElement("cd"); writer.WriteElementString("title", "Americana"); writer.WriteEndElement(); writer.Flush(); //Close the writer. writer.Close(); } }
Windows 8, Windows Server 2012, Windows 7, Windows Vista SP2, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core Role not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core Role supported with SP1 or later; Itanium not supported)
