ForceCloseTag Property

  • Artículo

Specifies whether to replace single empty element tags with a set of empty element open and close tags. You can use the ForceCloseTag if you search for open and close tags when parsing XML or if you want to increase readability.

ForceCloseTag applies when executing the XMLAdapter ToXML method, which creates XML consistent with its setting.

XMLAdapter.ForceCloseTag [= lValue]

Return Value

  • lValue
    Logical data type. The following table lists the values for lValue.

    lValue

    Description

    False (.F.)

    Does not replace single empty element tags with a set of empty element open and close tags. (Default)

    True (.T.)

Remarks

Applies To: XMLAdapter Class

Example

The following example contains an empty element tag, <col1/>:

<?xml version = "1.0" encoding="Windows-1252" standalone="yes"?>
<VFPData>
   <etest>
      <col1>One</col1>
   </etest>
   <etest>
      <col1/>
   </etest>
</VFPData>

Setting ForceCloseTag to True (.T.) replaces the single empty element tag with a set of valid empty element open and close tags, <col1></col1>.

<?xml version = "1.0" encoding="Windows-1252" standalone="yes"?>
<VFPData>
   <etest>
      <col1>One</col1>
   </etest>
   <etest>
      <col1></col1>
   </etest>
</VFPData>
