Parameters

buffer

Character array containing the text to write.

index

The position in the buffer indicating the start of the text to write.

count

The number of characters to write.

Exceptions

Type	Reason
ArgumentNullException	buffer is null.
ArgumentException	The buffer length minus index is less than count.
ArgumentOutOfRangeException	index or count is less than zero.
InvalidOperationException	The XmlWriter.WriteState is WriteState.Closed.

Remarks

This method can be used to write large amounts of text one buffer at a time.

Special handling must be done to ensure the WriteChars method does not split surrogate pair characters across multiple buffer writes. The XML specification defines the valid ranges for surrogate pairs.

For the asynchronous version of this method, see XmlWriter.WriteCharsAsync(Char[], int, int).
