The TextWriter type exposes the following members.
Methods| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | Equals(Object) | (Inherited from Object.) |
| Flush | Clears all buffers for the current writer and causes any buffered data to be written to the underlying device. |
| GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
 | MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| Write(Boolean) | Writes the text representation of a Boolean value to the text stream. |
| Write(Char) | Writes a character to the text stream. |
| Write(Char) | Writes a character array to the text stream. |
| Write(Decimal) | Writes the text representation of a decimal value to the text stream. |
| Write(Double) | Writes the text representation of an 8-byte floating-point value to the text stream. |
| Write(Int32) | Writes the text representation of a 4-byte signed integer to the text stream. |
| Write(Int64) | Writes the text representation of an 8-byte signed integer to the text stream. |
| Write(Object) | Writes the text representation of an object to the text stream by calling ToString on that object. |
| Write(Single) | Writes the text representation of a 4-byte floating-point value to the text stream. |
| Write(String) | Writes a string to the text stream. |
| Write(UInt32) | Writes the text representation of a 4-byte unsigned integer to the text stream. |
| Write(UInt64) | Writes the text representation of an 8-byte unsigned integer to the text stream. |
| Write(String, Object) | Writes out a formatted string, using the same semantics as Format(String, Object). |
| Write(String, Object) | Writes out a formatted string, using the same semantics as Format(String, Object). |
| Write(Char, Int32, Int32) | Writes a subarray of characters to the text stream. |
| Write(String, Object, Object) | Writes out a formatted string, using the same semantics as Format(String, Object). |
