An XmlReader object that is wrapped around the specified XmlReader object.

If the XmlReaderSettings object specifies a conformance level that is not consistent with conformance level of the underlying reader.

Remarks

This method allows you add additional features to an underlying XmlReader object. The underlying XmlReader object can be another XmlReader object created by the Create method, or an XmlReader object created using one of the concrete XmlReader implementations.

The created XmlReader object expands entity references and performs XML normalization of new line characters.
