Hi,
I want to create a XML at run-time and the xml looks like :

XML

<?xml version=""1.0"" encoding=""utf-8""?>
<root islandLocation=""D:\Regression1\Islands"" otherFileLocation=""D:\Regression1"">
<port>" + portConfigtoBase64String + @"</port>
<setup>" + setuptoBase64String + @"</setup>
<settings>" + settingstoBase64String + @"</settings>
<island>
<name>ABC</name>
<data>" + islandtoBase64String[0] + @"</data>
</island>
<island>
<name>PQR</name>
<data>" + islandtoBase64String[1] + @"</data>
</island>
</root>"

Here the number of <island> tags is not fixed. It varies at each run. So how can i make changes to my code so that this can be implemented, i.e. the number of <island> tags be controlled.

Thanks :)

The point is i need to add variable values to my XMl, i.e. the value of the nodes are stored in varibales and that i need to insert these variables in my XML as shown above

You can add any characters to the xml, add escape sequences if required.

Here is a sample

C#

string[] islandtoBase64String = { "sfsgsdg", "sgtyeyewy", "rhjfjgfjkgfj", "fgjgfjgfjgfj" };
           string[] names = { "AAA", "BBB", "CCC","DDD" };

           XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
           XmlNode docNode = doc.CreateXmlDeclaration("1.0", "UTF-8", null);
           doc.AppendChild(docNode);

           XmlNode productsNode = doc.CreateElement("products");
           doc.AppendChild(productsNode);
           int cnt = 0;
           foreach (string s in names)
           {

               XmlNode productNode = doc.CreateElement("island");
               productsNode.AppendChild(productNode);

               XmlNode nameNode = doc.CreateElement("Name");
               nameNode.AppendChild(doc.CreateTextNode(s));
               productNode.AppendChild(nameNode);
               XmlNode priceNode = doc.CreateElement("data");
               priceNode.AppendChild(doc.CreateTextNode(islandtoBase64String[cnt++]));
               productNode.AppendChild(priceNode);
           }

           doc.Save(@"D:\test.xml");

Make changes as per your requirement
