![]() | BeginWriteBodyContents(XmlDictionaryWriter^, AsyncCallback^, Object^) | Starts to write body contents for the body writer with specified writer, callback and state. |
![]() | CreateBufferedCopy(Int32) | Creates a buffered copy of the body. |
![]() | EndWriteBodyContents(IAsyncResult^) | Ends the writing of body contents. |
![]() | Equals(Object^) | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.(Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | Finalize() | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.(Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetHashCode() | Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetType() | |
![]() | MemberwiseClone() | |
![]() | OnBeginWriteBodyContents(XmlDictionaryWriter^, AsyncCallback^, Object^) | Raises an event when the body writer starts to write body contents with specified writer, callback and state. |
![]() | OnCreateBufferedCopy(Int32) | Provides an extensibility point when the body contents are written. |
![]() | OnEndWriteBodyContents(IAsyncResult^) | Raises an event when the body writer ends writing body contents. |
![]() | OnWriteBodyContents(XmlDictionaryWriter^) | When implemented, provides an extensibility point when the body contents are written. |
![]() | ToString() | Returns a string that represents the current object.(Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | WriteBodyContents(XmlDictionaryWriter^) | Writes out the contents of the message body. |
A message consists of headers and a body. The headers are buffered and the body is streamed. Because the body is streamed, the user cannot pass the actual content of the body to a message. Instead the user must pass a class that knows how to write the body when asked to do so. This is done by passing a class derived from BodyWriter to the Message. A message calls the class derived from BodyWriter whenever it requires the body to be written using an XmlWriter.
The following example shows how to derive a class from BodyWriter. This override takes in an array of strings and writes them to a XmlDictionaryWriter.
