Extensions.InDocumentOrder<T>(IEnumerable<T>) Method

Definition

Returns a collection of nodes that contains all nodes in the source collection, sorted in document order.

public:
generic <typename T>
 where T : System::Xml::Linq::XNode[System::Runtime::CompilerServices::Extension]
 static System::Collections::Generic::IEnumerable<T> ^ InDocumentOrder(System::Collections::Generic::IEnumerable<T> ^ source);
public static System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<T> InDocumentOrder<T>(this System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<T> source) where T : System.Xml.Linq.XNode;
static member InDocumentOrder : seq<'T (requires 'T :> System.Xml.Linq.XNode)> -> seq<'T (requires 'T :> System.Xml.Linq.XNode)> (requires 'T :> System.Xml.Linq.XNode)
<Extension()>
Public Function InDocumentOrder(Of T As XNode) (source As IEnumerable(Of T)) As IEnumerable(Of T)

Type Parameters

T

The type of the objects in source, constrained to XNode.

Parameters

source
IEnumerable<T>

An IEnumerable<T> of XNode that contains the source collection.

Returns

An IEnumerable<T> of XNode that contains all nodes in the source collection, sorted in document order.

Examples

The following example creates a collection of nodes that are not in document order, and then uses this axis to create a new collection where the nodes are in document order.

XElement xmlTree = new XElement("Root",
    new XElement("Item",
        new XElement("aaa", 1),
        new XElement("bbb", 2)
    ),
    new XElement("Item",
        new XElement("ccc", 3),
        new XElement("aaa", 4)
    ),
    new XElement("Item",
        new XElement("ddd", 5),
        new XElement("eee", 6)
    )
);

XElement[] elementList = {
    xmlTree.Descendants("ddd").First(),
    xmlTree.Descendants("ccc").First(),
    xmlTree.Descendants("aaa").First()
};

IEnumerable<XElement> inDocOrder = elementList.InDocumentOrder();

foreach (XElement el in inDocOrder)
    Console.WriteLine(el);
Dim xmlTree As XElement = _
    <Root>
        <Item>
            <aaa>1</aaa>
            <bbb>2</bbb>
        </Item>

        <Item>
            <ccc>3</ccc>
            <aaa>4</aaa>
        </Item>

        <Item>
            <ddd>5</ddd>
            <eee>6</eee>
        </Item>
    </Root>

Dim elementList() As XElement = _
    { _
        xmlTree...<ddd>(0), _
        xmlTree...<ccc>(0), _
        xmlTree...<aaa>(0) _
    }

Dim inDocOrder = elementList.InDocumentOrder

For Each el As XElement In inDocOrder
    Console.WriteLine(el)
Next

This example produces the following output:

<aaa>1</aaa>
<ccc>3</ccc>
<ddd>5</ddd>

Remarks

This axis method uses deferred execution. However, it first enumerates its source collection, the sorts the nodes in document order, and then yields the results.
