XmlWriter to Write to a String Instead of to a File

Question

I have a WCF service that needs to return a string of XML. But it seems like the writer only wants to build up a file, not a string. I tried:

string nextXM         


        

Answer 1

Guys don't forget to call xmlWriter.Close() and xmlWriter.Dispose() or else your string won't finish creating. It will just be an empty string
