public class Sample {
public static void Main() {
XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
doc.Load("books.xml");
Console.WriteLine("Display all the books...");
XmlNode root = doc.DocumentElement;
IEnumerator ienum = root.GetEnumerator();
XmlNode book;
while (ienum.MoveNext())
{
book = (XmlNode) ienum.Current;
Console.WriteLine(book.OuterXml);
Console.WriteLine();
}
}
}
Imports System.Collections
Imports System.Xml
public class Sample
public shared sub Main()
Dim doc as XmlDocument = new XmlDocument()
doc.Load("books.xml")
Console.WriteLine("Display all the books...")
Dim root as XmlNode = doc.DocumentElement
Dim ienum as IEnumerator = root.GetEnumerator()
Dim book as XmlNode
while (ienum.MoveNext())
book = CType(ienum.Current, XmlNode)
Console.WriteLine(book.OuterXml)
