converting the xml to string

[vinki]

Hi Everyone,

I am constructing an xml file, but when I try to read it there are some
extra slashes in the output. Can anoyone tell me why there are some extra
slashed and can i send the file to web service with those extra slashes.
below I am constructing the document
StringWriter sWriter;
SqlDataReader dr;

dr = SqlHelper.Execu teReader(connec tionString,"SP_ UsersData_Get") ;
XmlTextWriter w;
sWriter = new StringWriter();
//w = new XmlTextWriter(" C:/text.txt", System.Text.Enc oding.UTF8);
w= new XmlTextWriter(s Writer);

w.Formatting=Fo rmatting.Indent ed;
w.Indentationfi ltered=2;
w.WriteStartDoc ument(true);
w.WriteStartEle ment("test");
w.WriteStartEle ment("system");
w.WriteAttribut eString("id", "UML");
w.WriteElementS tring("version" , "1.0");
w.WriteStartEle ment("configura tion");
w.WriteElementS tring("update_p assword","True" );
w.WriteEndEleme nt();
w.WriteStartEle ment("users");
while(dr.Read() )
{
w.WriteStartEle ment("user");
w.WriteElementS tring("firstnam e", dr["first_name "].ToString());
w.WriteElementS tring("lastname ", dr["last_name"].ToString());
w.WriteElementS tring("email", dr["email"].ToString());
w.WriteElementS tring("loginid" , dr["Login"].ToString());

w.WriteElementS tring("status", "A");
w.WriteStartEle ment("roles");
w.WriteStartEle ment("role");
w.WriteString(" Agent");
w.WriteStartEle ment("groups");
w.WriteStartEle ment("group");
w.WriteElementS tring("path", "Services/irvine/" +
dr["supervisor "].ToString());
w.WriteEndEleme nt();
w.WriteEndEleme nt();
w.WriteEndEleme nt();
w.WriteEndEleme nt();
w.WriteStartEle ment("relations ");
w.WriteStartEle ment("relation" );
w.WriteElementS tring("type", "UML");
w.WriteElementS tring("external id", dr["Login"].ToString());
w.WriteEndEleme nt();
w.WriteEndEleme nt();
w.WriteEndEleme nt();
}
w.WriteEndEleme nt();
w.WriteEndDocum ent();
w.Close();
}

When I do sWriter.ToStrin g , It gives me an output file like below:
"<?xml versionfiltered =\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-16\"
standalone=\"ye s\"?>\r\n<a>\r\ n <system id=\"UMA\">\r\n
<version>1.0</version>\r\n <configuration> \r\n
<update_passwor d>True</update_password >\r\n </configuration>\ r\n <users>\r\n
<user>\r\n <firstname>

This is not the full xml, but as you can see I have \r\n slashes all over my
output xml. can I send my xml to web service like this.

Thanks.

Hey,

The '\r\n' are the symbols for new line, as you are finally packing with
XMLTextWriter class, these doesn't effect your file. Hence you can pass the
file to webservice, will not be a problem

To calrify you in details, better save that stream to a file on to the disk
and try to open it from IE. What do you see ?
