Convert a String to a Stream

In C#, to convert a String into a Stream object, we need to use the GetBytes method (from the Encoding.ASCII package), this way:

byte[] bytes = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(xmlContent);

And then, use that byte array when instantiate a Stream (for example, MemoryStream or FileStream):

MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream(bytes);
