Specifies the write state of an instance of a class derived from the System.Xml.XmlWriter class. [Edit]

public enum WriteState

Remarks

When a writer is instantiated, the write state is set to Start. While content is written, the write state is set to reflect the type of content being written. When the XmlWriter.Close method is called, the write state is set to Closed. The XmlWriter.WriteEndDocument method resets the write state back to Start, allowing the writer to write a new XML document. [Edit]
