Remarks

When building a SOAP message from XML elements returned from multiple objects that each have a GetXml method, use just one XmlDocument and pass it to each of the GetXml methods. This ensures that only one XmlDocument is loaded in memory for each SOAP message, instead of one for each object that implements the IXmlElement interface. This is because the GetXml method creates the returned XmlElement and sets its OwnerDocument property using the passed in XmlDocument.

Even though the OwnerDocument property is set to the passed in XmlDocument , the XmlElement is not added to the XmlDocument . To add the XmlElement to the XmlDocument , call the AppendChild method for the appropriate XmlNode in the System.Xml.XmlNode.ChildNodes collection.

Thread Safety
