Definition

Creates a duplicate of this node.

public:
 virtual System::Xml::XmlNode ^ Clone();
public virtual System.Xml.XmlNode Clone ();
abstract member Clone : unit -> System.Xml.XmlNode
override this.Clone : unit -> System.Xml.XmlNode
Public Overridable Function Clone () As XmlNode

Returns

The cloned node.

Examples

The following example clones the root node of the XML document.

#using <System.Xml.dll>

using namespace System;
using namespace System::IO;
using namespace System::Xml;
int main()
{
   XmlDocument^ doc = gcnew XmlDocument;
   doc->LoadXml( "<book ISBN='1-861001-57-5'>"
   "<title>Pride And Prejudice</title>"
   "<price>19.95</price>"
   "</book>" );
   XmlNode^ root = doc->FirstChild;
   
   //Clone the root node.  The cloned node includes
   //child nodes. This is similar to calling CloneNode(true).
   XmlNode^ clone = root->Clone();
   Console::WriteLine( clone->OuterXml );
}
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Xml;

public class Sample {

  public static void Main() {

    XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
    doc.LoadXml("<book ISBN='1-861001-57-5'>" +
                "<title>Pride And Prejudice</title>" +
                "<price>19.95</price>" +
                "</book>");

    XmlNode root = doc.FirstChild;

    //Clone the root node.  The cloned node includes
    //child nodes. This is similar to calling CloneNode(true).
    XmlNode clone = root.Clone();
    Console.WriteLine(clone.OuterXml);
  }
}

        'child nodes. This is similar to calling CloneNode(true).

Remarks

Cloning an XmlElement copies all attributes and their values, including those generated by the XML processor to represent defaulted attributes. This method recursively clones the node and the subtree underneath it.

Clone is equivalent to calling CloneNode(true).

The following table describes the specific behavior for each XmlNodeType.

XmlNodeType Clone
Attribute Clones the attribute node, including child nodes.
CData Clones the CData node, including its data content.
Comment Clones the comment node, including its text content.
Document Clones the document node, including any child nodes.
DocumentFragment Clones the document fragment node, including any child nodes.
DocumentType Clones the document type node.
Element Clones the element node, its attributes, and any child nodes.
Entity Entity nodes cannot be cloned.
EntityReference Clones the entity reference node. The replacement text is not included.
Notation Notation nodes cannot be cloned.
ProcessingInstruction Clones the processing instruction node, including its target and data.
SignificantWhitespace Clones the significant white space node, including its data value.
Text Clones the text node, including its data value.
Whitespace Clones the white space node, including its data value.
XmlDeclaration Clones the XmlDeclaration node, including its data value.
All other node types. These node types cannot be cloned.

This method is a Microsoft extension to the Document Object Model (DOM).
