XmlReader-to-XmlReader skips nodes?!

[Philipp Schumann]

Hi,

I have the following code to copy nodes from an XML document (XmlReader
reader) to some output (XmlWriter writer).

while (reader.Read ())
if (reader.MoveToC ontent () == XmlNodeType.Ele ment)
break; // forward the reader to the document element

writer.WriteSta rtDocument (false);
writer.WriteSta rtElement ("XmlStore") ; // write the document element
itself

while (reader.Read ())
if (reader.NodeTyp e == XmlNodeType.Ele ment)
writer.WriteNod e (reader, true); // copy nodes

// might want to insert more nodes here

writer.WriteEnd Element (); // close document element

Now, if I use this to process the following XML:

<root>
<one><item1/></one>
<two><item2/></two>
</root>

what the XmlWriter produces is:

<XmlStore>
<one><item1 /></one>
<item2 />
</XmlStore>

Whatever happened to the <two> element? Only its child element <item2/> is
included in the output.

(Note, formatting to the XML bits added manually for clarity. The original
contains no whitespace and the writer uses no formatting. Still, all
combinations of source formatting, reader whitespace handling, and writer
output formatting produce the same result: the <two> node is missing in the
output.)

But if I use

while (! (reader.EOF))
if (reader.NodeTyp e == XmlNodeType.Ele ment)
writer.WriteNod e (reader, true); // copy nodes
it works, so my issue is resolved. :)
Thanks anyway.
