XDocumentType.NodeType Property

[ This article is for Windows Phone 8 developers. If you’re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation. ]

Gets the node type for this node.

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

'Declaration
Public Overrides ReadOnly Property NodeType As XmlNodeType

Property Value

Type: System.Xml.XmlNodeType
The node type. For XDocumentType objects, this value is DocumentType.

Because all classes that derive from XObject contain a NodeType property, you can write code that operates on collections of concrete subclass of XObject. Your code can then test for the node type of each node in the collection.

The following example shows the use of this property to retrieve the node type for an XDocumentType object.


Dim output As New StringBuilder
Dim internalSubset = _
    "<!ELEMENT Pubs (Book+)>" & Environment.NewLine & _
    "<!ELEMENT Book (Title, Author)>" & Environment.NewLine & _
    "<!ELEMENT Title (#PCDATA)>" & Environment.NewLine & _
    "<!ELEMENT Author (#PCDATA)>"

Dim doc As XDocument = _
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
    <!--This is a comment.-->
    <?xml-stylesheet href='mystyle.css' title='Compact' type='text/css'?>
    <Pubs>
        <Book>
            <Title>Artifacts of Roman Civilization</Title>
            <Author>Moreno, Jordao</Author>
        </Book>
        <Book>
            <Title>Midieval Tools and Implements</Title>
            <Author>Gazit, Inbar</Author>
        </Book>
    </Pubs>
    <!--This is another comment.-->

doc.FirstNode.AddAfterSelf(New XDocumentType("Pubs", Nothing, Nothing, internalSubset))

output.Append(doc.DocumentType.NodeType.ToString())
output.Append(Environment.NewLine)

OutputTextBlock.Text = output.ToString()
