This class is an abstract parent class for the character data node types: XmlCDataSection, XmlComment, XmlSignificantWhitespace, XmlText, and XmlWhitespace. It defines methods for manipulating the text-based data of these nodes.

public abstract class XmlCharacterData : XmlLinkedNode {
// Protected Constructors
   protected internal XmlCharacterData(string data, XmlDocument doc);
// Public Instance Properties
   public virtual string Data{set; get; }
   public override string InnerText{set; get; }       
// overrides XmlNode
   public virtual int Length{get; }
   public override string Value{set; get; }           
// overrides XmlNode
// Public Instance Methods
   public virtual void AppendData(string strData);
   public virtual void DeleteData(int offset, int count);
   public virtual void InsertData(int offset, string strData);
   public virtual void ReplaceData(int offset, int count, string strData);
   public virtual string Substring(int offset, int count);
