Not applicable.
Parameters
- name
-
The name of the DOCTYPE. This must be non-empty.
- pubid
-
If non-null it also writes PUBLIC "pubid" "sysid" where pubid and sysid are replaced with the value of the given arguments.
- sysid
-
If pubid is null and sysid is non-null it writes SYSTEM "sysid" where sysid is replaced with the value of this argument.
- subset
-
If non-null it writes [subset] where subset is replaced with the value of this argument.
| Exception type | Condition |
|---|---|
| This method was called outside the prolog (after the root element). |
|
| name is a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) or String.Empty -or- the value for name would result in invalid XML. |
Note: |
|---|
| In the Microsoft .NET Framework version 2.0 release, the recommended practice is to create XmlWriter instances using the System.Xml.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 method does not check for invalid characters in pubid, sysid or subset. It also does not check that the internal subset is well-formed.
Security Note: |
|---|
| The XmlTextWriter does not validate any data that is passed to the WriteDocType method. You should not pass arbitrary data to this method. |
The following example writes an XML file representing a book.
