XDocument Constructors

Definition

Initializes a new instance of the XDocument class.

Overloads

XDocument()

Initializes a new instance of the XDocument class.

XDocument(Object[])

Initializes a new instance of the XDocument class with the specified content.

XDocument(XDocument)

Initializes a new instance of the XDocument class from an existing XDocument object.

XDocument(XDeclaration, Object[])

Initializes a new instance of the XDocument class with the specified XDeclaration and content.

Examples

The following example creates a document, and then adds a comment and an element to it. It then composes another document using the results of a query.

XDocument srcTree = new XDocument(
    new XComment("This is a comment"),
    new XElement("Root",
        new XElement("Child1", "data1"),
        new XElement("Child2", "data2"),
        new XElement("Child3", "data3"),
        new XElement("Child2", "data4"),
        new XElement("Info5", "info5"),
        new XElement("Info6", "info6"),
        new XElement("Info7", "info7"),
        new XElement("Info8", "info8")
    )
);

XDocument doc = new XDocument(
    new XComment("This is a comment"),
    new XElement("Root",
        from el in srcTree.Element("Root").Elements()
        where ((string)el).StartsWith("data")
        select el
    )
);
Console.WriteLine(doc);
Dim srcTree As XDocument = _
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
        <!--This is a comment-->
        <Root>
            <Child1>data1</Child1>
            <Child2>data2</Child2>
            <Child3>data3</Child3>
            <Child2>data4</Child2>
            <Info5>info5</Info5>
            <Info6>info6</Info6>
            <Info7>info7</Info7>
            <Info8>info8</Info8>
        </Root>
Dim doc As XDocument = _
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
        <!--This is a comment-->
        <Root>
            <%= From el In srcTree.<Root>.Elements _
                Where CStr(el).StartsWith("data") _
                Select el %>
        </Root>
Console.WriteLine(doc)

This example produces the following output:

<!--This is a comment-->
<Root>
  <Child1>data1</Child1>
  <Child2>data2</Child2>
  <Child3>data3</Child3>
  <Child2>data4</Child2>
</Root>

Remarks

Overloaded constructors enable you to create a new empty XDocument; to create an XDocument with some specified initial content; and to create an XDocument as a copy of another XDocument object.

There are not many scenarios that require you to create an XDocument. Instead, you can usually create your XML trees with an XElement root node. Unless you have a specific requirement to create a document (for example, because you have to create processing instructions and comments at the top level, or you have to support document types), it is often more convenient to use XElement as your root node.

For details about the valid content of an XDocument, see Valid Content of XElement and XDocument Objects.

XDocument()

Source:
XDocument.cs
Source:
XDocument.cs
Source:
XDocument.cs

Initializes a new instance of the XDocument class.

public:
 XDocument();
public XDocument ();
Public Sub New ()

Examples

The following example creates a new document, and then adds a comment and an element to it.

XDocument doc = new XDocument();
doc.Add(new XComment("This is a comment"));
doc.Add(new XElement("Root", "content"));
Console.WriteLine(doc);
Dim doc As XDocument = New XDocument()
doc.Add(<!--This is a comment-->)
doc.Add(<Root>content</Root>)
Console.WriteLine(doc)

This example produces the following output:

<!--This is a comment-->
<Root>content</Root>

Remarks

There are not many scenarios that require you to create an XDocument. Instead, you can usually create your XML trees with an XElement root node. Unless you have a specific requirement to create a document (for example, because you have to create processing instructions and comments at the top level, or you have to support document types), it is often more convenient to use XElement as your root node.

Examples

The following example creates a document, and then adds a comment and an element to it. It then composes another document using the results of a query.

XDocument srcTree = new XDocument(
    new XComment("This is a comment"),
    new XElement("Root",
        new XElement("Child1", "data1"),
        new XElement("Child2", "data2"),
        new XElement("Child3", "data3"),
        new XElement("Child2", "data4"),

        new XElement("Info7", "info7"),
        new XElement("Info8", "info8")
    )
);

XDocument doc = new XDocument(
    new XComment("This is a comment"),
    new XElement("Root",
        from el in srcTree.Element("Root").Elements()
        where ((string)el).StartsWith("data")
        select el
    )
);
Console.WriteLine(doc);
Dim srcTree As XDocument = _
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
        <!--This is a comment-->
        <Root>
            <Child1>data1</Child1>
            <Child2>data2</Child2>
            <Child3>data3</Child3>
            <Child2>data4</Child2>
            <Info5>info5</Info5>
            <Info6>info6</Info6>
            <Info7>info7</Info7>
            <Info8>info8</Info8>
        </Root>
Dim doc As XDocument = _
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
        <!--This is a comment-->
        <Root>
            <%= From el In srcTree.<Root>.Elements _
                Where CStr(el).StartsWith("data") _
                Select el %>
        </Root>
Console.WriteLine(doc)

This example produces the following output:

<!--This is a comment-->
<Root>
  <Child1>data1</Child1>
  <Child2>data2</Child2>
  <Child3>data3</Child3>

XDocument(XDocument)

Source:
XDocument.cs
Source:
XDocument.cs
Source:
XDocument.cs

Initializes a new instance of the XDocument class from an existing XDocument object.

public:
 XDocument(System::Xml::Linq::XDocument ^ other);
public XDocument (System.Xml.Linq.XDocument other);
new System.Xml.Linq.XDocument : System.Xml.Linq.XDocument -> System.Xml.Linq.XDocument
Public Sub New (other As XDocument)

Parameters

other
XDocument

The XDocument object that will be copied.

Remarks

You use this constructor to make a deep copy of an XDocument.

This constructor traverses all nodes and attributes in the document specified in the other parameter, and creates copies of all nodes as it assembles the newly initialized XDocument.

        </Root>
Dim doc As XDocument = _
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
        <!--This is a new comment-->
        <Root>
            <%= From el In srcTree.<Root>.Elements _
