Read XML into a file
Posted on 2009-06-27
Hello,
(I am a novice still learning)....
Please see the code below. I have an XML data stream coming in from a WebRequest, and I now want to place this stream into a file called response.xml which is located at "C:\XML\response.xml
What is the syntax (in VB.NET) to use the stream writer to place the response into this file?
Thanks,
Joe

Dim response As WebResponse = request.GetResponse()
dataStream = response.GetResponseStream()
Dim reader As XmlTextReader = New XmlTextReader(dataStream)

This MSDN article should have the StreamWriter calls you're looking for.

Ok, read the article and tried:
==========================
Dim response As WebResponse = request.GetResponse()
dataStream = response.GetResponseStream
Dim reader As XmlTextReader = New XmlTextReader(dataStream)
Using sw As New StreamWriter("C:\XML\respo
sw.Write(reader)
End Using
==========================
And in my file, response.xml, it has the following text:
System.Xml.XmlTextReader
==========================
Dim response As WebResponse = request.GetResponse()
dataStream = response.GetResponseStream
Dim reader As XmlTextReader = New XmlTextReader(dataStream)
Using sw As New StreamWriter("C:\XML\respo
sw.Write(reader)
End Using
==========================
And in my file, response.xml, it has the following text:
System.Xml.XmlTextReader
"System.Xml.XmlTextReader"
