Hi, I want to export XML with File Encoding "UTF-8" but the encoding file always "UTF-8 With BOM", please give me solution to export XML with File Encoding "UTF-8".

public void writeXmlFile(XmlDocument _xmlDoc)
{
    using (var stream = new System.IO.MemoryStream())
    {
        XMLWriter writer = XMLWriter::newStream(stream); //Convert the Xml to a memory stream and pass it to use File::SendFileToUser method
        _xmlDoc.writeTo(writer);
        writer.flush();

        File::SendFileToUser(stream, 'XmlFile.xml');
    }
}

You should be able to achieve that by using XmlWriterSettings with Encoding = new System.Text.UTF8Encoding(false).

Unfortunately, the X++ class XmlWriterSettings doesn't support it; there you can provide the encoding name only, not additional parametes. But the class is actually just a wrapper of the .NET class, System.Xml.XmlWriterSettings, and you can provide the .NET object in it's constructor.

Therefore I suggest the following:

System.Xml.XmlWriterSettings netWriterSettings = new System.Xml.XmlWriterSettings(); netWriterSettings.Encoding = new System.Text.UTF8Encoding(false); XmlWriterSettings axWriterSettings = new XmlWriterSettings(netWriterSettings); XMLWriter writer = XMLWriter::newStream(stream, axWriterSettings);

Alternatively, you could ignore the X++ wrappers and use the .NET API directly.
