problems generating XML file

[Yoramo]

Hello
I'm generating a XML document to a StringWriter. using VS 2005 beta 1.
I have 2 problems:
1. I can not set the encoding to UTF-8. I'm getting UTF-16 all the
time..
2. The XML document is missing its end. is there a limit to the size
of the StringWriter?

Thanks in advance.

Try the following class:

public class StringWriterWithEncoding : StringWriter
{
Encoding encoding;

public StringWriterWithEncoding (Encoding encoding)
{
this.encoding = encoding;
}

public override Encoding Encoding
{
get { return encoding; }
}
}

That way you can tell the StringWriter what encoding you want it to
advertise itself as.
2. The XML document is missing its end. is there a limit to the size
of the StringWriter?

Well, there's *some* limit, but it's unlikely you're hitting it.

Could you post a short but complete program which demonstrates the
problem?

See http://www.pobox.com/~skeet/csharp/complete.html for details of
what I mean by that.
