using xml data in codedom created class

jimmi666 · 08-24-2009, 06:02 AM

hi there!

i'm creating c# class using codedom methods
i have already generated:

public class CRSHorizontalID
{

public class Norway
{

// value
public const long name;
}
}

bu the name of "public class Norway" should be read from xml document.. the name of class is in the xml node: <Country name="Norway" isoAlpha3="NOR" countryId="47" >

does someone know how could i get the word "Norway" from xml(or xsd) to the:
newClass = new CodeTypeDeclaration(className); ?

thank you much

Code:

using System.Xml.Linq;

//...

string countryName =
  doc.Element("RootElement").Elements("Country")
  .Where(
    p => (string)p.Attribute == (someId)
  ).Select(
    p => (string)p.Attribute("name")
    ).SingleOrDefault();

newClass = new CodeTypeDeclaration(countryName);

Note that the above requires you to know what you're looking for, otherwise you'll have to return an IEnumerable collection and iterate all values (which may be what you're looking for), the latter allows you to have an in memory representation of the xml document, allowing you to parse it with just c#
