- writer
- XmlWriter
Output stream that writes XML to the configuration file.
- serializeCollectionKey
- Boolean
true to serialize the collection key; otherwise, false.
Returns
true if the ConfigurationElementCollection was written to the configuration file successfully.
Exceptions
One of the elements in the collection was added or replaced and starts with the reserved prefix "config" or "lock".
Remarks
The SerializeElement method writes the contents of the configuration elements contained in the collection and any nested elements they contain to the configuration file. Override SerializeElement to provide a custom write procedure out of the collection contents and nested elements.
