public override void WriteSurrogateCharEntity (char lowChar, char highChar);
override this.WriteSurrogateCharEntity : char * char -> unit
Public Overrides Sub WriteSurrogateCharEntity (lowChar As Char, highChar As Char)

Parameters

lowChar
Char

The low surrogate. This must be a value between 0xDC00 and 0xDFFF.

highChar
Char

The high surrogate. This must be a value between 0xD800 and 0xDBFF.

Remarks

Note

Starting with the .NET Framework 2.0, we recommend that you create XmlWriter instances by using the XmlWriter.Create method and the XmlWriterSettings class to take advantage of new functionality.

This method is only applicable on systems that use UTF-16 encoding.

The surrogate character entity is written in hexadecimal format. The range for surrogate characters is #x10000 to #x10FFFF. The following formula is used to generate the surrogate character entity: (highChar - 0xD800) * 0x400 + (lowChar - 0xDC00) + 0x10000.

For both HTML and XML, the document character set (and therefore the notation of numeric character references) is based on UCS [ISO-10646]. A single numeric character reference in a source document may therefore in some cases correspond to two 16-bit units in a string (a high surrogate and a low surrogate). These 16-bit units are referred to as a surrogate pair.

For more information regarding surrogates or characters, refer to section 3.7 of the Unicode 3.0/Unicode 2.0 standard, or section 2.2 of the W3C XML 1.0 Recommendation.
