XDocument just reads the first title?

I need to parse xml but my code just parses one title not all.
How can I parse part ?
This is my code:
CustomResponse itemCustom = new CustomResponse ();
XDocument response = XDocument.Parse(responseXml);
XElement rootElement = response.Root;
foreach (XElement sellResponse in rootElement.Elements())
{
itemCustom .ErrorCode = sellResponse.Element("ErrorCode").Value;
itemCustom .ErrorMessage = sellResponse.Element("ErrorMessage").Value;
itemCustom .CustomerID= sellResponse.Element("CustomerID").Value;
itemCustom .CustomerType= sellResponse.Element("CustomerType").Value;
}
This is my xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TINS_XML_DATA>
<Header>
<ErrorCode>WAATS</ErrorCode>
<ErrorMessage>UTL</ErrorMessage>
</Header>
<Customer>
<CustomerID>UTL11111111111111111111</CustomerID>
<CustomerType>NSell</CustomerType>
</Customer>
</TINS_XML_DATA>

Try something like this:
foreach (XElement sellResponse in rootElement.Elements())
{
if (sellResponse.Name == "Header")
{
itemCustom.ErrorCode = sellResponse.Element("ErrorCode").Value;
itemCustom.ErrorMessage = sellResponse.Element("ErrorMessage").Value;
}
else if (sellResponse.Name == "Customer")
{
itemCustom.CustomerID = sellResponse.Element("CustomerID").Value;
itemCustom.CustomerType = sellResponse.Element("CustomerType").Value;
}
}
Update: You could also use XPath to find required elements as like below:
var xDoc = new XmlDocument();
xDoc.LoadXml(xml);
var errorMessage = xDoc.SelectNodes("//ErrorMessage")[0].InnerText;

This is my solved:
var xDoc = new XmlDocument();
xDoc.LoadXml(responseXml);
itemSell.ErrorCode = xDoc.SelectNodes("//ErrorCode")[0].InnerText;
itemSell.ErrorMessage = xDoc.SelectNodes("//ErrorMessage")[0].InnerText;
itemSell.CustomerID= xDoc.SelectNodes("//CustomerID")[0].InnerText;

How to add XNamespace to XDocument's root element?

I'm generating Xml Documemnt via Linq To Xml. It is added 'xmlns' attribute to all elements with empty values.
How to remove unwanted attributes?
XNamespace np = "example";
XDocument doc = new XDocument(
new XDeclaration("1.0", "UTF-8", string.Empty),
new XElement(np + "root")
);
var list = new List<string> { "1", "2", "3" };
foreach (var item in list)
{
var xE = new XElement("child",
new XElement("first", item),
new XElement("second", item)
);
doc.Root.AddFirst(xE);
}
I expect the result.
Only xmlns attribute in root element
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<root xmlns="example">
<child>
<first>3</first>
<second>3</second>
</child>
<child >
<first>2</first>
<second>2</second>
</child>
<child>
<first>1</first>
<second>1</second>
</child>
</root>
But getting
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<root xmlns="example">
<child xmlns=""> //unwanted attribute
<first>3</first>
<second>3</second>
</child>
<child xmlns="">
<first>2</first>
<second>2</second>
</child>
<child xmlns="">
<first>1</first>
<second>1</second>
</child>
</root

It needs to add XNamespace to every XElement.
XDocument doc = new XDocument(
new XDeclaration("1.0", "UTF-8", string.Empty),
new XElement(np + "root")
);
var list = new List<string> { "1", "2", "3" };
foreach (var item in list)
{
var xE = new XElement(np+"child",
new XElement(np+"first", item),
new XElement(np+"second", item)
);
doc.Root.AddFirst(xE);
}

XML append node with main element

Hi all I have my XML as follows
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ApplicantDetails>
</ApplicantDetails>
I am adding dynamically the nodes based on few searches as follows
XmlDocument xDoc = new XmlDocument();
xDoc.Load(path);
XmlElement root = xDoc.DocumentElement;
XmlElement elem = null;
XmlElement e = xDoc.CreateElement("ApplicantData");
e.InnerText = string.Empty;
root.AppendChild(e);
xDoc.Save(path);
elem = xDoc.CreateElement("Mobile");
elem.InnerText = txtMobile.Text;
XmlNode node = root.SelectSingleNode("ApplicantData");
node.AppendChild(elem);
xDoc.Save(path);
Which is giving my XML as follows
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ApplicantDetails>
<ApplicantData>
<Mobile>1234567890</Mobile>
</ApplicantData>
</ApplicantDetails>
Now I would like to add a new node as follows
<ApplicantData>
<Mobile>1000000</Mobile>
</ApplicantData>
But with the code I have written it is appending as follows
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ApplicantDetails>
<ApplicantData>
<Mobile>1234567890</Mobile>
<Aadhar>
</Aadhar>
<Mobile>1234567801</Mobile>
</ApplicantData>
<ApplicantData>
</ApplicantData>
</ApplicantDetails>

Instead of XmlElement use XmlNode
XmlNode ApplicantData = xDoc.CreateElement("ApplicantData");
XmlNode elem = null;
XmlNode e = xDoc.CreateElement("ApplicantData");
e.InnerText = string.Empty;
elem = xDoc.CreateElement("Mobile");
elem.InnerText = txtMobile.Text;
ApplicantData.AppendChild(elem);
xDoc.DocumentElement.AppendChild(ApplicantData);
xDoc.Save(path);

You can use the below code to create dynamic xml.
XElement xmldata = new XElement("ApplicantDetails",
new XElement("ApplicantData", new XElement("Mobile", 1234567890)),
new XElement("ApplicantData", new XElement("Mobile", 1234567801))
);

Navigate xml nodes;

Hi I have an xml data returned from another service. It looks like this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<response xmlns="http://test.com/group/application" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<Response>
<Response>
<ReturnCode>0</ReturnCode>
<Message>Sucess</Message>
<Data>PRINT 'This is a test #2'</Data>
</Response>
</Response>
</response>
I need the value of Data, Message and ReturnCode. The value inside the Data(PRINT 'This is a test #2') node could be single line or thousands of lines..
I am using this C# code to get the values
XmlDocument xm = new XmlDocument();
string Response = obj.getContent(str, 1, 73810, SHA);
//Console.WriteLine("Response" + Response);
xm.LoadXml(Response);
Console.WriteLine(xm.InnerXml);
XmlNode oldCd;
XmlElement root = xm.DocumentElement;
Console.WriteLine(root.InnerText);
oldCd = root.SelectSingleNode("/response/Response/Response/ReturnCode/Message/Data/");
static void Main()
{
try
{
svc obj = new svc();
..
//XmlDocument xm = new XmlDocument();
string rsp = obj.getContent(..;
String myEncodedString;
myEncodedString = obj.XmlDecode(rsp);
XNamespace xmlns = XNamespace.Get("http://xxxx.com/xxx/xx");
XDocument doc = XDocument.Parse(myEncodedString);
Console.WriteLine(obj.Return_Message_Data("ReturnCode", myEncodedString));
Console.WriteLine(obj.Return_Message_Data("Message", myEncodedString));
Console.WriteLine(obj.Return_Message_Data("Data", myEncodedString));
Console.ReadLine();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Console.WriteLine(e);
Console.ReadLine();
}
}

Try this
XmlDocument xml = new XmlDocument();
xml.LoadXml(myXmlString); //myXmlString is the xml file in string //copying xml to string: string myXmlString = xmldoc.OuterXml.ToString();
XmlNodeList xnList = xml.SelectNodes("/responset[#*]/Response");
foreach (XmlNode xn in xnList)
{
XmlNode response = xn.SelectSingleNode("Response");
if (response != null)
{
string rc = response["ReturnCode"].InnerText;
string msg = example["Message"].InnerText;
string data = example["Data"].InnerText;
}
}

Add attributes using XAttribute

I have a root XML which is like this:
<Root xmlns="http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/" xmlns:t="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<Element1>somevalue</Element1>
<Data/>
<Root>
I need to add few customer related informaiton like (Name, Age etc) under Data Element Node. So, the result I expect is follows:
<Root xmlns="http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/" xmlns:t="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<Element1>somevalue</Element1>
<Data>
<Name t:type="xs:string" xmlns="" xmlns:s="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">Elvis</Name>
<Address t:type="xs:string" xmlns="" xmlns:s="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">Some address</Address>
</Data>
<Root>
How can I achieve this? I am using C#, .net 4.0.
I was trying out the below code, but didn't get the result I was expecting:
string strTemplate = "<Root xmlns='http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/' xmlns:t='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance'><Element1>somevalue</Element1><Data/></Root>";
XDocument doc = XDocument.Parse(strTemplate);
XElement rootElement = doc.Root;
XElement dataElement = null;
foreach (XElement descendant in rootElement.Descendants())
{
if (descendant.Name.LocalName == "Data")
{
dataElement = descendant;
break;
}
}
string cusData = "<CustData><Name>Elvis</Name><Address>XYZ</Address></CustData>";
XElement customerElements = XElement.Parse(cusData);
if (dataElement != null)
{
foreach (XElement custAttributes in customerElements.Descendants())
{
XNamespace t = "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
var attribute = new XAttribute(t + "type", "xs:string");
var attribute1 = new XAttribute(XNamespace.Xmlns + "s", "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema");
XElement element = new XElement(custAttributes.Name, attribute, attribute1);
element.Value = custAttributes.Value;
dataElement.Add(element);
}
}
string strPayload = doc.ToString();
When I execute the code I get the following:
<Data xmlns="http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/">
<Name t:type="xs:string" xmlns:t="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="">Elvis</Name>
<Address t:type="xs:string" xmlns:t="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="">XYZ</Address>
</Data>
Any help appreciated!
Thanks,
M
