HtmlTextWriter Constructor (TextWriter^)

 

Initializes a new instance of the HtmlTextWriter class that uses a default tab string.

Namespace:   System.Web.UI
Assembly:  System.Web (in System.Web.dll)

public:
HtmlTextWriter(
	TextWriter^ writer
)

Parameters

writer
Type: System.IO::TextWriter^

The TextWriter instance that renders the markup content.

The HtmlTextWriter overload of the HtmlTextWriter(TextWriter^) constructor uses the DefaultTabString constant when indentation of a line is necessary. It calls the HtmlTextWriter(TextWriter^, String^) overload to initialize the new instance.

The following code example demonstrates how to use the HtmlTextWriter(TextWriter^) constructor to create a custom HtmlTextWriter object named StyledLabelHtmlWriter. When the MyPage custom class, which is derived from the Page class, is requested by a client browser, it uses the StyledLabelHtmlWriter class to render its content to the output stream.

// A custom class that overrides its CreateHtmlTextWriter method.
// This page uses the StyledLabelHtmlWriter class to render its content.
public ref class MyPage: public Page
{
protected:
   virtual HtmlTextWriter^ CreateHtmlTextWriter( TextWriter^ writer ) override
   {
      return gcnew HtmlStyledLabelWriter( writer );
   }
};
