XmlDocument.Loa dXml takes forever!

Hi,
Does anyone have any ideas as to why the LoadXml statement in the
following code takes so 8-10 seconds on a 2.4 GHz machine? Just seems to
me that it should be a great deal faster. Also if there is a faster way of
doing it, please let me know.

Thanks,
Dave

I am not familiar with .NET + XML classes, but maybe .NET tries to get
the dtd from the internet.

Hi Herfried,

If I did know I had told it,

But it is not a standard Net dataset scheme I thought .

Thanks both of you for pointing this out. You are definately correct that
going out to the dtd was slowing it down. I ended up downloading the dtd
and all associated files to my server and redirected the Xml to point to my
server instead. The speed shot through the roof. Thanks to both of you for
your help.

Thanks Again,
David J. Ricker II

I have been using the following code (successfully) to read Xml formated text packets from a TCP stream. The output from the server stream consists of a sequence of well formed Xml documents written to the output stream. We are willing to pay $ to any expert (e.g. MVP) consultant who has to time to help us track down this problem. (we will discuss rates if you can prove your expertise, and problem solving approach).

With both .NET 1.0 and 1.1 I have found the following strange behaviour where System.Xml.XmlDocument.LoadXml doesn't throw an error when parsing a text node with a character reference to an invalid characters like &#x1;.

As far as I understand the DOM allows that and an implementation is not required to throw an error. When OuterXml is...

I'm loading an XmlDocument object from a string using LoadXml. The string is a well-formed XML fragment (see example) and loads fine, however there are entities (&amp;) within attribute values. The loader parses the incoming entities and converts them to their character references automatically. How would I retain the entity? Example incoming fragment: <company name="B &amp; B Electric" />

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
