     //Write the end tag for the book element.

     writer.WriteEndElement();

     //Write the XML to file and close the writer.
     writer.Flush();
     writer.Close();

     //Read the file back in and parse to ensure well formed XML.
     XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
     //Preserve white space for readability.
     doc.PreserveWhitespace = true;
     //Load the file
     doc.Load(filename);

     //Write the XML content to the console.
     Console.Write(doc.InnerXml);
  }
}

Remarks

Notes

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 you call WriteStartAttribute, you can close the attribute with this method.

You can also close the attribute by calling WriteStartAttribute again, calling WriteAttributeString, or calling WriteEndElement.
