Is there a minimum character limit for TextWriter

Is there a minimum content limit to use TextWriter for writing to stream

MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();    
TextWriter textWriter = new StreamWriter(ms);

Below code does not write data to stream. And stream is empty

for (int ix = 0; ix < 10; ix++)
{
textWriter.WriteLine(ix.ToString());
}

Below code writes the data to stream

for (int ix = 0; ix < 1000; ix++)
{
textWriter.WriteLine(ix.ToString());
}

I have searched msdn and did not find any thing.

You have to flush the stream before the writes take effect. This can be accomplished by calling Flush() directly, or by closing the stream.
