XmlDocument::CreateAttribute Method (String)
Visual Studio 2010
Creates an XmlAttribute with the specified Name.
Assembly: System.Xml (in System.Xml.dll)
Parameters
- name
- Type: System::String
The qualified name of the attribute. If the name contains a colon, the Prefix property reflects the part of the name preceding the first colon and the LocalName property reflects the part of the name following the first colon. The NamespaceURI remains empty unless the prefix is a recognized built-in prefix such as xmlns. In this case NamespaceURI has a value of http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/.
The XmlAttribute can be added to an XmlElement using the SetAttributeNode method.
The following creates an attribute and adds it to an XML document.
#using <System.Xml.dll> using namespace System; using namespace System::IO; using namespace System::Xml; int main() { XmlDocument^ doc = gcnew XmlDocument; doc->LoadXml( "<book genre='novel' ISBN='1-861001-57-5'><title>Pride And Prejudice</title></book>" ); //Create an attribute. XmlAttribute^ attr = doc->CreateAttribute( "publisher" ); attr->Value = "WorldWide Publishing"; //Add the new node to the document. doc->DocumentElement->SetAttributeNode( attr ); Console::WriteLine( "Display the modified XML..." ); doc->Save( Console::Out ); }
