public:
property System::IO::Stream ^ BaseStream { System::IO::Stream ^ get(); };
public System.IO.Stream? BaseStream { get; }
public System.IO.Stream BaseStream { get; }
member this.BaseStream : System.IO.Stream
Public ReadOnly Property BaseStream As Stream
Property Value
The stream to which the XmlTextWriter
is writing or null
if the XmlTextWriter
was constructed using a TextWriter that does not inherit from the StreamWriter class.
Remarks
Note
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 the writer was constructed using a TextWriter
that is derived from the StreamWriter
class, this property is equivalent to the StreamWriter.BaseStream property. If the writer was constructed using a Stream, this property returns the Stream
passed to the constructor. If the writer was constructed using a file name, this property returns the Stream
representing the file.
