Hi, Maybe I'm just spoiled by SQL, but is there some cool LINQ way to insert a new record into an "XML table" and have the indexed ID update automatically (or at least semi-automatically)? Here's what I mean by "XML table": <myElements> <myElement> <id>1</id> <value>blah</value> </myElement> <myElement> <id>...

This row is only added if I have a value to pass through to it, otherwise I just ignore the entire tag. I use XElement.Load to load in the string of text that I store in a string but when I attach it to the XML it alway...
I have a string which contains XML, I just want to parse into Xelement, but it has an ampersand. I still have problem to parse it with HtmlDecode. Any suggestion? string test = " <MyXML><SubXML><XmlEntry Element="test" value="wow&" /></SubXML></MyXML>"; XElement.Parse(HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(test)); I also added these methods to rep...
So, I have a bug to remove foreach (XElement x in items.Elements("x")) { XElement result = webservice.method(x); if (/*condition based on values in result*/) { x.Remove(); } } The problem is that calling x.Remove() alters the foreach such that if there are two Elements("x"), and the first is removed, the loop d...
I had to write my own deserializer, because XmlSerializer and DataContractSerializer aren't good for my needs. So, here's the base of my deserializer: static BaseElement ParseXml(XElement element) { var e = (Element)Activator.CreateInstance(Type.GetType("Elements." + element.Name)); foreach (var attr in element....

When I use LINQ to XML, is the order of the elements and attributes written out to text guaranteed to be the same order as how I added the XElement and XAttribute objects? Similarly, when I read in an XML document, is it traversed in the same order as it appears in the XML? ...
