xmltextwriter

I need to generate a huge xml file from different sources (functions). I decide to use XmlTextWriter since it uses less memory than XmlDocument . First, initiate an XmlWriter with underlying MemoryStream MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(); XmlTextWriter xmlWriter = new XmlTextWriter(ms, new UTF8Encoding(false, false)); xmlWriter.Formatting = Formatting.Indented; Then I pass the XmlWriter (note xml writer is kept open until the very end) to a function to generate the beginning of the XML file: xmlWriter.WriteStartDocument(); xmlWriter.WriteStartElement(); // xmlWriter.WriteEndElement(); // Do

I have this bit of code, which serializes an object to a file. I'm trying to get each XML attribute to output on a separate line. The code looks like this: public static void ToXMLFile(Object obj, string filePath) { XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(obj.GetType()); XmlWriterSettings settings = new XmlWriterSettings(); settings.NewLineOnAttributes = true; XmlTextWriter writer = new XmlTextWriter(filePath, Encoding.UTF8); writer.Settings = settings; // Fails here. Property is read only. using (Stream baseStream = writer.BaseStream) { serializer.Serialize(writer, obj); } } The only

Hello I'm trying to insert some XML data into a table on SQL Server 2008. However I keep getting thrown this error; XML parsing: line 1, character 39, unable to switch the encoding The database column filemeta uses the XML datatype, and I've switch the encoding to UTF-16 which I believe is necessary for adding XML data. INSERT INTO testfiles (filename, filemeta) VALUES ('test.mp3', '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16" standalone="yes"?><!--This is a test XML file--><filemeta filetype="Audio"><Comments /><AlbumTitle /><TrackNumber /><ArtistName /><Year /><Genre /><TrackTitle /></filemeta>');

I'm using XmlTextWriter and its WriteElementString method, for example: XmlTextWriter writer = new XmlTextWriter("filename.xml", null); writer.WriteStartElement("User"); writer.WriteElementString("Username", inputUserName); writer.WriteElementString("Email", inputEmail); writer.WriteEndElement(); writer.Close(); The expected XML output is: <User> <Username>value</Username> <Email>value</Email> </User> However, if for example inputEmail is empty, the result XML I get as as follows: <User> <Username>value</Username> <Email/> </User> Whereas I would expect it to be: <User> <Username>value<

Purpose: I plan to Create a XML file with XmlTextWriter and Modify/Update some Existing Content with XmlNode SelectSingleNode(), node.ChildNode[?].InnerText = someting, etc. After I created the XML file with XmlTextWriter as below. XmlTextWriter textWriter = new XmlTextWriter("D:\\learning\\cs\\myTest.xml", System.Text.Encoding.UTF8); I practiced the code below. But failed to save my XML file. XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument(); doc.Load("D:\\learning\\cs\\myTest.xml"); XmlNode root = doc.DocumentElement; XmlNode myNode; myNode= root.SelectSingleNode("descendant::books"); .... textWriter
