How to create a XmlDocument using XmlWriter in .NET?

by

Here’s at least one solution:

XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument(); 
using (XmlWriter writer = doc.CreateNavigator().AppendChild()) 
{ 
    // Do this directly 
     writer.WriteStartDocument(); 
     writer.WriteStartElement("root"); 
     writer.WriteElementString("foo", "bar"); 
     writer.WriteEndElement(); 
     writer.WriteEndDocument();
    // or anything else you want to with writer, like calling functions etc.
}

Apparently XpathNavigator gives you a XmlWriter when you call AppendChild()
