Parameters

reader

A System.Xml.XmlReader from which to copy the attributes. [Edit]

defattr

A bool where true specifies to copy the default attributes from reader; otherwise, false. [Edit]

Exceptions

Type	Reason
ArgumentNullException	reader is null. [Edit]
InvalidOperationException	The XmlWriter.WriteState is WriteState.Closed. [Edit]

Remarks

Operation

After the nodes are read, reader is moved to the next node at the same depth as the current node.

If reader is in the ReadState.InitialXmlReader.ReadState, this method moves reader to the end of the stream. If reader is in the ReadState.EndOfFileXmlReader.ReadState, this method is non-operational.

Note to Inheritors

Override this method to customize the behavior of this method in types derived from the System.Xml.XmlWriter class.

Usage

Use this method to write the node found at the current position and all sub-nodes.

[Edit]

Example

C# Example

using System; using System.Xml; public class Copier { public static void Main(string[] args) { XmlTextReader xtReader = new XmlTextReader(args[0]); XmlTextWriter xtWriter = new XmlTextWriter(Console.Out); xtWriter.WriteNode(xtReader, false); xtWriter.Close(); xtReader.Close(); } }
