Examples

The following example uses a LINQ query to create an IEnumerable<T> of XElement, which it then passes to this method. This adds the results of a query to the tree in the desired location.

XElement srcTree = new XElement("Root",
    new XElement("Element1", 1),
    new XElement("Element2", 2),
    new XElement("Element3", 3),
    new XElement("Element4", 4),
    new XElement("Element5", 5)
);
XElement xmlTree = new XElement("Root",
    new XElement("Child1", 1),
    new XElement("Child2", 2),
    new XElement("Child3", 3),
    new XElement("Child4", 4),
    new XElement("Child5", 5)
);
XElement child1 = xmlTree.Element("Child1");
child1.AddAfterSelf(
    from el in srcTree.Elements()
    where (int)el > 3
    select el
);
Console.WriteLine(xmlTree);

Visual Basic

Dim srcTree As XElement = _
    <Root>
        <Element1>1</Element1>
        <Element2>2</Element2>
        <Element3>3</Element3>
        <Element4>4</Element4>
        <Element5>5</Element5>
    </Root>

Dim xmlTree As XElement = _
    <Root>
        <Child1>1</Child1>
        <Child2>2</Child2>
        <Child3>3</Child3>
        <Child4>4</Child4>
        <Child5>5</Child5>
    </Root>

Dim child1 As XElement = xmlTree.<Child1>(0)
child1.AddAfterSelf( _
    From el In srcTree.Elements() _
    Where CInt(el) > 3 _
    Select el _
)
Console.WriteLine(xmlTree)

This example produces the following output:

xmlLang

<Root>
  <Child1>1</Child1>
  <Element4>4</Element4>
  <Element5>5</Element5>
  <Child2>2</Child2>
  <Child3>3</Child3>
  <Child4>4</Child4>
  <Child5>5</Child5>
</Root>
