What is the max. size limt of XmlTextWriter?

Does anyone know the size limit of the StringWriter and XmlTextWriter.

Dim buffer As New System.IO.Strin gWriter
Dim writer As New System.Xml.XmlT extWriter(buffe r)

Please point me to some technical documents.

Thanks,

Terrence,
The size limit of a XmlTextWriter is the size of the underlying Stream (or
StreamWriter), the max size would be Int64.MaxValue (Long.MaxValue)

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...ctorTopic2.asp

Length of a stream = Stream.Length
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...engthTopic.asp
Now if you are really asking about the size limit of a StringWriter, then it
would be Int32.MaxValue (Integer.MaxVal ue) the capacity of the underlying
StringBuilder.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...ClassTopic.asp

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...acityTopic.asp

Of course with both methods (Stream & StringWriter) you will more then
likely run out of system resources first, either actual harddisk space or
virtual memory.

Hope this helps
Jay

The App converts the data into excel with almost all of the formatting

Hi there, I tried to implement a little XML-EchoServer using Sockets and XmlTextWriter/Reader. However the server hangs while reading the input from the client (wr.Flush() seams not to work). I could make it run by using s.Send(new byte); instead of flush, but this cannot be the solution. Is there a better work around or fix to this problem? I use 1.1 with SP1, so the earlier posting do not apply. Merry Christmas and thanks

Hi I'm reading an xml file into an XmlDocument, adding some nodes, and writing it back out. I would like the nodes I add to assume the same level of indeting as the rest of the document. (I load the document with PreserveWhiteSpace = true.) I thought I could do this by using an XmlTextWriter with Formatting set to Formatting.Indented, but this doesn't work. The Formatting.Indented on the XmlTextWriter only indents my output when I...

We've had a month long headache with one of our functions in the CMS we've built. Whenever a page is updated in our CMS, we do a recursive call to the DB to get all the pages (and child pages, and child child pages, etc.) and then create an XML file, and save that to the filesystem. The front end then uses that XML file along with some XSL to create the site menus, site maps, etc. We're having a problem where 99 out of 100 times, this...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
