<short>
Provides routines used to write XML content to a file, text file, or stream.
</short>
<descr>
<p>
<var>laz2_xmlwrite.pas</var> provides procedures and types used to write XML
content to a file, text file, or stream. laz2_xmlwrite.pas has classes in its
implementation section that are used to perform serialization of XML content
to the storage destination.

</short>
<descr>
<var>TXMLWriterFlag</var> is an enumerated type with values that represent
options enabled when writing XML content. Values in TXMLWriterFlag are stored
in the <var>TXMLWriterFlags</var> set type, and passed as an argument to the
WriteXMLFile and WriteXML routines.

<descr>
<p>
<var>TXMLWriterFlags</var> is a set type used to store 0 or more values from
the <var>TXMLWriterFlag</var> enumeration. TXMLWriterFlags indicates the
options enabled when writing XML content. TXMLWriterFlags is the type passed
as an argument to the <var>WriteXMLFile</var> procedure.

<element name="WriteXMLFile">
<short>
Writes an XML document to a file, text file, or stream.
</short>
<descr>
<p>
<var>WriteXMLFile</var> is an overloaded procedure used to write an XML
document to a file, text file, or stream. Overloaded variants provide the
implementation details for each of the destinations, and create either
TTextXMLWriter or TStreamXMLWriter class instances to store the XML document.
</p>
<p>
AFileName indicates the file name on the local file system where the XML
content is stored. AFileName can contain UTF-8 encoded values, and must
represent a valid file name. If the file in AFileName already exists, an
exception will be raised.
</p>
<p>
Flags contains values from the TXMLWriterFlag enumeration. Use Flags to
enable XML writing options in the routine. The default value for the argument
is an empty set (<b>[]</b>), and indicates that no options are enabled in the
routine.

<short>
Writes a DOM Node to a file, text file, or stream.
</short>
<descr>
<p>
<var>WriteXML</var> is an overloaded procedure used to write a DOM Node to a
file, text file, or stream. WriteXML calls one of the overloaded WriteXMLFile
routines for a specific destination.
</p>
<p>
Element is a TDOMNode parameter that represents the DOM Document Node with
the XML content written in the method. WriteXML ensures that Element is cast
to a TXMLDocument type when calling the WriteXMLFile routine.
</p>
<p>
AFileName indicates the file name on the local file system where the XML
content is stored. AFileName can contain UTF-8 encoded values, and must
represent a valid file name. If the file in AFileName already exists, an
exception will be raised.
</p>
<p>
Flags contains values from the TXMLWriterFlag enumeration. Use Flags to
enable XML writing options in the routine. The default value for the argument
is an empty set (<b>[]</b>), and indicates that no options are enabled in the
routine.
