writeToString(): String;
The writeToString method of the JadeXMLNode class writes the XML representation of the node to a string and then returns the string.
You can control the format of the output by setting the JadeXMLDocument class formatting properties of the document object; for example, the endOfLine and indentString properties.
The following example parses a simple document string and formats the print output.
write1(); vars doc : JadeXMLDocument; begin create doc; doc.indentString := ' '; doc.parseString('<name><first>John</first><last>Smith</last></name>'); write doc.writeToString; delete doc; end;
The output from the write1 method shown in the previous example is as follows.
<?xml version="1.0"?> <name> <first>John</first> <last>Smith</last> </name>
