I have a big xml file which is composed of multiple xml files. The file structure is like this.
<xml1>
</xml1>
<xml2>
</xml2>
<xml3>
</xml3>
.
.
<xmln>
</xmln>
I want to process each XML file by a LINQ statement but I am not sure how to extract each XML element individually from the file and continue the iteration until the end. I figured experts here would be able to give me the nudge I am looking for. My requirement is to extract the individual elements so i could load into a XDoc element for further processing and continue on through the subsequent elements. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for reading!!
Assuming each element is a valid XML, you can wrap your document in a top-level tag and then load it just fine:
<wrap>
<xml1>
</xml1>
<xml2>
</xml2>
</wrap>
If this is an error log with individual well formed xml elements, you probably don't want to load it as an XMLDocument
. A better option is to use an XPathDocument
created with an XmlReader
where the XmlReaderSettings
specify ConformanceLevel.Fragment
. Then you can use an XPathNavigator
to access your elements and attributes as needed. See the third answer in this forum post for sample code.
...late by just a year and then some. :)
You can use the System.Xml reference, which includes a lot of built-in functionality, and it allows you to declare an XmlTextReader. More info here .
