I am reading an XML file using an XMLTextReader. Is there a way to tell the difference between a start tag (like <tag>
) and a self-terminating tag (like <tag />
)

A:
If you mean the difference between <tag></tag>
and <tag />
, then the answer is no, as both are equivalent in XML, and you should not depend on this in your code.
