XmlTextWriter::BaseStream Property

 

Gets the underlying stream object.

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

public:
property Stream^ BaseStream {
	Stream^ get();
}

Property Value

Type: System.IO::Stream^

The stream to which the XmlTextWriter is writing or null if the XmlTextWriter was constructed using a TextWriter that does not inherit from the StreamWriter class.

System_CAPS_noteNote

Starting with the .NET Framework 2.0, we recommend that you create XmlWriter instances by using the XmlWriter::Create method and the XmlWriterSettings class to take advantage of new functionality.

If the writer was constructed using a TextWriter that is derived from the StreamWriter class, this property is equivalent to the StreamWriter::BaseStream property. If the writer was constructed using a Stream, this property returns the Stream passed to the constructor. If the writer was constructed using a file name, this property returns the Stream representing the file.
