Hi,
Using LINQ with xml files is a breeze, much easier than working with other methods IMO.
But I've run into a bit of a snag with it.
You see, I have an xml file that look like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<merchandiser xmlns:xsi="http ://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:noNamespace SchemaLocation= "merchandiser.x sd">
<!-- a list of product nodes exist here -->
</merchandiser>
All is great. In my VB program, I import an xml namespace to use when reading this xml
file, like this:
Imports <xmlns:xsi="htt p://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
So far so good. Now, in code I read the contents of the xml file like this:
Dim xdoc as XDocument = XDocument.Load( "C:\merchandise r.xml")
dim brands = from p in xdoc.<xsi:produ ctSelect p.<xsi:brand>.V alue
That seems simple enough. However, testing reveals that the "brands" variable contains
absolutely nothing. No error is ever thrown when the code runs.
This is the first time I've worked with a file with two namespaces declared, and I don't
know how to work with both using LINQ.
Can anyone help me?

Okay, here's a sample of the xml I'm working with, including the namespace and all:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<merchandiser xmlns:xsi="http ://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:noNamespace SchemaLocation= "merchandiser.x sd">

<!-- more product nodes follow -->
</merchandiser>
Please, can someone help me? :(
I found a simple solution to the problem by removing the attributes of the root node (use
the XElement's RemoveAllAttrib utes method). After doing this, everything worked! This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics |

I recently stumbled across a pretty interesting LINQ to SQL question and
wonder, whether anybody might have an answer. (I'm doing quite some
increasing LINQ evangelism down here in Germany.).
Assume I want to select rows from a database and check whether a specific
column contains keywords from a list of keywords. The following works just
fine:
List<stringsearchTerms = new List<string>() { "Maria",
"Pedro" };

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
