Examples

The following example displays all the book titles.

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Xml;
using System.Collections;

public class Sample {

  public static void Main() {

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

     //Get and display all the book titles.
     XmlElement root = doc.DocumentElement;
     XmlNodeList elemList = root.GetElementsByTagName("title");
     IEnumerator ienum = elemList.GetEnumerator();
     while (ienum.MoveNext()) {
       XmlNode title = (XmlNode) ienum.Current;
       Console.WriteLine(title.InnerText);
     }
  }
}

Imports System.IO
Imports System.Xml
Imports System.Collections

public class Sample

  public shared sub Main()

     Dim doc as XmlDocument = new XmlDocument()
     doc.Load("2books.xml")
                         
     'Get and display all the book titles.
     Dim root as XmlElement = doc.DocumentElement
     Dim elemList as XmlNodeList = root.GetElementsByTagName("title")
     Dim ienum as IEnumerator = elemList.GetEnumerator()          
     while (ienum.MoveNext())
        Dim title as XmlNode
        title = CType(ienum.Current, XmlNode)
        Console.WriteLine(title.InnerText)
     end while    
    
  end sub
end class

The example uses the file 2books.xml as input.

Remarks

Provides a simple "foreach" style iteration over the collection of nodes in the XmlNodeList.
