XmlNode::WriteContentTo Method (XmlWriter^)

 

Saves all the child nodes of the node to the specified XmlWriter, when overridden in a derived class.

Namespace:   System.Xml
Assembly:  System.Xml (in System.Xml.dll)

public:
virtual void WriteContentTo(
	XmlWriter^ w
) abstract

Parameters

w
Type: System.Xml::XmlWriter^

The XmlWriter to which you want to save.

This method is a Microsoft extension to the Document Object Model (DOM). It is functionally equivalent to the InnerXml property.

The following example displays the contents of the root node to the console.

#using <System.Xml.dll>

using namespace System;
using namespace System::IO;
using namespace System::Xml;
int main()
{
   XmlDocument^ doc = gcnew XmlDocument;
   doc->LoadXml( "<book xmlns:bk='urn:samples' bk:ISBN='1-861001-57-5'>"
   "<title>Pride And Prejudice</title>"
   "</book>" );
   XmlNode^ root = doc->FirstChild;

   // Because WriteContentTo saves only the child nodes of the node
   // to the writer none of the attributes are displayed.
   Console::WriteLine( "Display the contents of the node..." );
   XmlTextWriter^ writer = gcnew XmlTextWriter( Console::Out );
   writer->Formatting = Formatting::Indented;
   root->WriteContentTo( writer );
}
