XText Constructor (String)

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Initializes a new instance of the XText class.

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

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub New ( _
    value As String _
)

public XText(
    string value
)

Parameters

Remarks

You typically do not create text nodes by using the XText constructors. When you pass text content when constructing an XElement, text nodes are automatically created.

Examples

The following example creates an element that contains a text node.

Dim output As New StringBuilder
Dim root As XElement = <Root>Some text</Root>
output.Append(root)
output.Append(Environment.NewLine)

OutputTextBlock.Text = output.ToString()

StringBuilder output = new StringBuilder();
XElement root = new XElement("Root", "Some text");
output.Append(root + Environment.NewLine);

OutputTextBlock.Text = output.ToString();
