Flushes the object's internal buffer to its destination IStream/string. This flushing occurs when one of the following conditions is met:
The
outputproperty is set to a destination.The
endDocument()event is called.The
flush()method is called.
Visual Basic Implementation Syntax
Sub flush
()
Visual Basic Usage Syntax
oMXXMLWriter.flush
C/C++ Syntax
HRESULT flush ( );
Return Values
S_OK
The value returned if no errors are reported.
Remarks
The flush method has no effect for DOMDocument output. Avoid handling the underlying IStream object during output (for example, direct writing). Keep in mind that a correspondence between Simple API for XML (SAX2) events and output text is not generally specified, although an implementation can provide it. Therefore, when using the flush method, the exact position within the generated document is not generally known. If the flush method interrupts writer output, all output that has been processed is put into the underlying IStream/ISequentialStream object.
The flush method is not implemented by XSLProcessor objects.
Versioning
Implemented in: MSXML 3.0 and later
