This must be .net. The sdk I am looking at is not like the one you are mentioning. I guess I failed to mention that I am using MSXML4 in VC++6.

XmlDataDocument question

Hi everyone,

I have the following XML structure.

<ROOT>
<ELEMENT>
<Time>100</Time>
<MIN>500</MIN>
<MAX>500</MAX>
<RESULT>OK</RESULT>
<ERRORS>NO</ERRORS>
</ELEMENT>

<ELEMENT>
<Time>100</Time>
<RESULT>OK</RESULT>
<ERRORS>NO</ERRORS>
</ELEMENT>

Unfortunately, as you can see the guy who designed the XML did not make it consistent (all ELEMENT nodes do not have the same sub-nodes). However, I am only interested in the RESULT sub-node.

So, I use the XMLDataDocument class to step through the file.
My question is that when I step in the element node, how can I just take a look at the RESULT tag.

Thanks for any help you can give me.

You can use XmlDocument's selectNodes("//RESULT") and it will bring you all 'RESULT' nodes despite where they are in the document structure.

Hi,

I tried the SelectNodes and SelectSingleNode method. However, it starts its search from the root document. However, I want it to search only in its own node context. Am I missing something here?

Direct shove of data from an XML file to a web service.

I have a .net web service which expects a soap requested outlined by a structure of classes. Working on the client side I have created an xml file that contains everything that will be in the body of the soap envelope. If possible I want to take the contents of the xml file and shove them directly into the class and send it the web service. Here is the code I have been trying.

<br />
Dim sXMLFile As String = txtXML.Text<br />
Dim doc As New XmlDocument()<br />
Dim rc As localhost.Request<br />
<br />
Dim ds As New DataSet()<br />
Dim tbl As DataTable<br />
Dim col As DataColumn<br />
Dim row As DataRow<br />
<br />
doc.Load(sXMLFile)<br />
ds.ReadXml(New XmlNodeReader(doc))<br />
<br />
''// This doesn't work...<br />
'rc.SetInfo = ds.Tables(0).DataSet<br />
'rc.SetInfo2 = ds.Tables(1).DataSet<br />
<br />
''// This is really what I'm trying to get... <br />
''// A direct shove of the data from the XML file to thw web service.<br />
'wr.SubmitRequest(ctype(ds, localhost.Request)<br />
'wr.SubmitRequest(ctype(sXMLFile, localhost.Request)<br />
wr.SubmitRequest(ctype(XmlNodeReader(doc), localhost.Request)<br />

Is this possible and if so how?
Thanks,

Jason W.

Yep, its possible. Do you have the WSDL for the method in question? You will need to use the correct schema.

If you have the WSDL however, it would probalby be a better idea to generate a proxy and use that, much more maintainable.

Actually, I finally figured out how to do it this morning. Here is what I came up with:

Dim sXMLFile As String = txtXML.Text<br />
    Dim serializer As New XmlSerializer(GetType(localhost.RequestChange))<br />
    Dim fs As New FileStream(sXMLFile, FileMode.Open)<br />
    Dim rc As localhost.RequestChange<br />
    rc = CType(serializer.Deserialize(fs), localhost.RequestChange)

Thanks for the response,

xml formatted data from a socket to a dataset

I need to accept XML formatted data over a socket connection and place the data into a dataset for parsing. The XML data is bracketed by a start character and an end character, but may range from 50 bytes to thousands of bytes. The app will need to be in c++. ANy ideas

Thanks

Just grab the XML and use DataSet.ReadXml to load it into a DataSet object. You can use the socket stream as the parameter, or use any TextReader (such as the XmlTextReader) as the parameter. Just see the ReadXml for the overloads.

How to display xml transformed in HTML in a windows Application?

Re: Transformed XML Display

using XSL ...

Your question is way too general, so I'll recommend that perhaps you get yourself a good XML book (i.e., Teach yourself XML in 24 hours).

As for displaying HTML in a windows Application, you'll need to make use of the IBrowser/IBrowser2 interface.

One way to do this is to learn Xsl Transformations (W3C Tutorial[^]), transform Xml to Html using System.Xml.Xsl.XslTransform object and display it using WebBrowser COM object. (See Hosting a webpage inside a Windows Form[^] and Using the WebBrowser control in .NET[^])

Hi ,
I am creating xml document from dataset.
one of my data field is of data type datetime.
so when I am converting it to xml it is getting conveted in to long date value ,but i don't want long date.
for example

and it is getting converted into '2002-08-29T00:00:00.0000000+05:30'
I hope I have explained my problem to some extent.
can anybody help me out to solve this problem?
thanks

I ran into this same "issue", and I ended up just storing the Date as a string in the XML and then converting it back into a Date/Time when I read the data back in ...

There's probably a more "direct" approach to take, but this works just fine.
