XmlTextReader.NodeType Property

Definition

Gets the type of the current node.

public:
 virtual property System::Xml::XmlNodeType NodeType { System::Xml::XmlNodeType get(); };
public override System.Xml.XmlNodeType NodeType { get; }
member this.NodeType : System.Xml.XmlNodeType
Public Overrides ReadOnly Property NodeType As XmlNodeType

Property Value

One of the XmlNodeType values representing the type of the current node.

Examples

The following example reads an XML file and displays each of the nodes.

#using <System.Xml.dll>

using namespace System;
using namespace System::IO;

   XmlTextReader^ reader = nullptr;

      reader = gcnew XmlTextReader( filename );
      reader->WhitespaceHandling = WhitespaceHandling::None;
      
      // Parse the file and display each of the nodes.
      while ( reader->Read() )

Remarks

Note

Starting with the .NET Framework 2.0, we recommend that you create XmlReader instances by using the XmlReader.Create method to take advantage of new functionality.

This property never returns the following XmlNodeType types: Document, DocumentFragment, Entity, EndEntity, or Notation.
