How can I easily get a TextReader from an XDocument?
- by Mark Seemann
Given an XDocument instance, how can I easily get a TextReader that represents that instance?
The best I've been able to come up with is something like this (where xml is an XDocument instance):
var s = new MemoryStream();
var sw = new StreamWriter(s);
xml.Save(sw);
sw.Flush();
s.Position = 0;
TextReader tr = new StreamReader(s);
However, this seems a little clunky, so I was wondering if there's an easier way?
