XmlReader.IsEmptyElement Property

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

When overridden in a derived class, gets a value indicating whether the current node is an empty element (for example, <MyElement/>).

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

Syntax

'Declaration
Public MustOverride ReadOnly Property IsEmptyElement As Boolean

public abstract bool IsEmptyElement { get; }

Property Value

Type: System.Boolean
true if the current node is an element (NodeType equals XmlNodeType.Element) that ends with />; otherwise, false.

Remarks

This property enables you to determine the difference between the following:

<item num="123"/> (IsEmptyElement is true).

<item num="123"></item> (IsEmptyElement is false, although element content is empty).

A corresponding EndElement node is not generated for empty elements.

Examples

Dim output As New StringBuilder()

Dim xmlString As String = _
        "<book>" & _
            "<title>Pride And Prejudice</title>" & _
            "<price>19.95</price>" & _
            "<misc/>" & _
        "</book>"

Using reader As XmlReader = XmlReader.Create(New StringReader(xmlString))

    While reader.Read()
