XmlTextReader::Skip Method ()

 

Skips the children of the current node.

Namespace:   System.Xml
Assembly:  System.Xml (in System.Xml.dll)

public:
virtual void Skip() override

System_CAPS_noteNote

Starting with the .NET Framework 2.0, we recommend that you create XmlReader instances by using the XmlReader::Create method to take advantage of new functionality.

In the following XML input if the reader is positioned on the <a> node or any of its attributes, calling Skip positions the reader to the <b> node.

If the reader is positioned on a leaf node already (such as the <x> node or the text node abc), calling Skip is the same as calling Read.

<a name="bob" age="123">
  <x/>abc<y/>
</a>
<b>
 ...
</b>

This method checks for well-formed XML.
