Specifies the state of the System.Xml.XmlWriter.
Syntax
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.
