XElement::Load Method (XmlReader^)

 

Loads an XElement from an XmlReader.

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

public:
static XElement^ Load(
	XmlReader^ reader
)

Parameters

reader
Type: System.Xml::XmlReader^

A XmlReader that will be read for the content of the XElement.

Return Value

Type: System.Xml.Linq::XElement^

An XElement that contains the XML that was read from the specified XmlReader.

By creating an XmlNodeReader from a DOM document, and then using the XmlNodeReader to create an XElement, this method can be used to create a copy of a DOM document in a LINQ to XML tree.

LINQ to XML's loading functionality is built upon XmlReader. Therefore, you might catch any exceptions that are thrown by the XmlReader::Create overload methods and the XmlReader methods that read and parse the document.

The following example creates a DOM document, creates an XmlNodeReader from the DOM document, instantiates a tree from the reader. This code effectively copies a DOM document into a LINQ to XML tree.

No code example is currently available or this language may not be supported.

This example produces the following output:


                <Root>
  <Child>child contents</Child>
</Root>
