XDocument Save String parameter doesn't exists in net.core

In my old projects when I save a XDocument, the Save function has like 7 overloads including a "string fileName"

Now in my new project using Net Core there's no overload accepting a string where the document should be saved.

I have this:

XDocument file = new XDocument();
XElement email = new XElement("Email");
XElement recipientsXml = new XElement("Recipients");
foreach (var r in recipients)
{
   var rec = new XElement("Recipient",
       new XAttribute("To", r));
   recipientsXml.Add(rec);
}
email.Add(recipientsXml);
file.Add(email);
file.Save(@"C:\1\email.xml");

How I save the XDocument in my disk?

Thanks.

Ok I found how to do that.

FileStream fileStream = new FileStream(@"C:\1\emails.xml");
XmlWriterSettings settings = new XmlWriterSettings() { Indent = true };
XmlWriter writer = XmlWriter.Create(fileStream, settings);

XDocument file = new XDocument();
XElement email = new XElement("Email");
XElement recipientsXml = new XElement("Recipients");
foreach (var r in recipients)
{
   var rec = new XElement("Recipient",
       new XAttribute("To", r));
   recipientsXml.Add(rec);
}
email.Add(recipientsXml);
file.Add(email);
file.Save(writer);

writer.Flush();
fileStream.Flush();

You can save the XDocument like this, but you need to add some SaveOptions (implementation). Have a look at the Implementation of XDocument:

public void Save(string fileName, SaveOptions options)
{
    XmlWriterSettings ws = GetXmlWriterSettings(options);
    if (_declaration != null && !string.IsNullOrEmpty(_declaration.Encoding))
    {
        try
        {
            ws.Encoding = Encoding.GetEncoding(_declaration.Encoding);
        }
        catch (ArgumentException)
        {
        }
    }

    using (XmlWriter w = XmlWriter.Create(fileName, ws))
    {
        Save(w);
    }
}

You can implement your own solution using a writer, or simply call the existing method like

file.Save(@"C:\1\email.xml", SaveOptions.None);
