XDocument doc = new XDocument( new XComment("A comment in the document."), new XElement("Root", new XElement("Child", "content") ) ); XElement child = doc.Descendants("Child").First(); XDocument documentOfChild = child.Document; Console.WriteLine(documentOfChild.FirstNode);
Visual Basic
Dim doc As XDocument = _ <?xml version="1.0"?> <!--A comment in the document.--> <Root> <Child>content</Child> </Root> Dim child As XElement = doc.Descendants("Child").First() Dim documentOfChild As XDocument = child.Document Console.WriteLine(documentOfChild.FirstNode)
