Hi,
You could use XPath for XML search. Below is several simple examples:
Let our data.xml file contains:
<mytag>
<mytag2>
<mysubtag val="abc"/>
</mytag2>
<mysubtag val="def"/>
</mytag>"
XPathDocument doc = new XPathDocument("data.xml");
// Search for all <mysubtag/> elements
XPathNavigator n = doc.CreateNavigator();
XPathNodeIterator iter = n.Select("//mysubtag");
while (iter.MoveNext())
{
// execute some processing for node iter.Current
}
//--------------------------------------------------------
XPathDocument doc = new XPathDocument("data.xml");
// Search for all <mysubtag/> elements where val is "abc"
XPathNavigator n = doc.CreateNavigator();
XPathNodeIterator iter = n.Select("//mysubtag[@val = 'abc']");
while (iter.MoveNext())
{
// execute some processing for node iter.Current
}
//--------------------------------------------------------
XPathDocument doc = new XPathDocument("data.xml");
// Search for all <mysubtag/> elements inside <mytag2>
XPathNavigator n = doc.CreateNavigator();
XPathNodeIterator iter = n.Select("//mytag2/mysubtag");
while (iter.MoveNext())
{
// execute some processing for node iter.Current
}

Hi all
I have large XML file (5 levels of RootNode.ChildNodes.ChildNodes... and
so on... Of course XmlType are Text and Atributs) and I must search in it
some elements by various criteria. I think about "my privet method
SelectXmlElement", but it's not so easy. To much levels for "foreach" or
other IEnumerable...
So before I implement this "horrible" method(s) I have one question. Is
something in VS.Net to auto search in XML? I read some about XPath, but
it's look like strange magic...
But if XPath is reason -> please, just one simple example will be helpfull
Regards
Krzysztof
