XmlElement.CloneNode(Boolean) Method

Definition

Creates a duplicate of this node.

public:
 override System::Xml::XmlNode ^ CloneNode(bool deep);
public override System.Xml.XmlNode CloneNode (bool deep);
override this.CloneNode : bool -> System.Xml.XmlNode
Public Overrides Function CloneNode (deep As Boolean) As XmlNode

Parameters

deep
Boolean

true to recursively clone the subtree under the specified node; false to clone only the node itself (and its attributes if the node is an XmlElement).

Returns

The cloned node.

Examples

The following example creates a new element, clones it, and then adds both elements into an XML document.

#using <System.Xml.dll>

using namespace System;
using namespace System::IO;
using namespace System::Xml;
int main()
{
   XmlDocument^ doc = gcnew XmlDocument;
   doc->Load( "2books.xml" );
   
   // Create a new element.
   XmlElement^ elem = doc->CreateElement( "misc" );
   elem->InnerText = "hardcover";
   elem->SetAttribute( "publisher", "WorldWide Publishing" );
   
   // Clone the element so we can add one to each of the book nodes.
   XmlNode^ elem2 = elem->CloneNode( true );
   
   // Add the new elements.
   doc->DocumentElement->FirstChild->AppendChild( elem );
   doc->DocumentElement->LastChild->AppendChild( elem2 );
   Console::WriteLine( "Display the modified XML..." );
   doc->Save( Console::Out );
}
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Xml;

public class Sample
{
  public static void Main()
  {

    XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
    doc.Load("2books.xml");

    // Create a new element.
    XmlElement elem = doc.CreateElement("misc");
    elem.InnerText = "hardcover";
    elem.SetAttribute("publisher", "WorldWide Publishing");

    // Clone the element so we can add one to each of the book nodes.
    XmlNode elem2 = elem.CloneNode(true);

    // Add the new elements.
    doc.DocumentElement.FirstChild.AppendChild(elem);
    doc.DocumentElement.LastChild.AppendChild(elem2);

    Console.WriteLine("Display the modified XML...");
    doc.Save(Console.Out);
  }
}

Public Class Sample
    
    Public Shared Sub Main()
        
        Dim doc As New XmlDocument()
        doc.Load("2books.xml")
        
        ' Create a new element.
        Dim elem As XmlElement = doc.CreateElement("misc")
        elem.InnerText = "hardcover"
        elem.SetAttribute("publisher", "WorldWide Publishing")
        
        ' Clone the element so we can add one to each of the book nodes.
        Dim elem2 As XmlNode = elem.CloneNode(True)
        
        ' Add the new elements.
        doc.DocumentElement.FirstChild.AppendChild(elem)
        doc.DocumentElement.LastChild.AppendChild(elem2)
        
        Console.WriteLine("Display the modified XML...")
        doc.Save(Console.Out)
    End Sub
End Class

Remarks

This method serves as a copy constructor for nodes. The duplicate node has no parent (ParentNode returns null).
