Examples

The following example creates an element with single precision floating point content. It then retrieves the value by casting to Nullable<T> of Single.

Dim output As New StringBuilder
Dim root As XElement = _
        <Root>
            <Value>3.402823e38</Value>
        </Root>
Dim value As Nullable(Of Single) = CType(root.Element("Value"), Nullable(Of Single))
output.Append(String.Format("Nullable Single: value={0}", IIf(value.HasValue, _
    value.ToString(), "null")))
output.Append(Environment.NewLine)
OutputTextBlock.Text = output.ToString()

StringBuilder output = new StringBuilder();
XElement root = new XElement("Root",
    new XElement("Value", 3.402823e38)
);
float? value = (float?)root.Element("Value");
output.Append("Nullable Single: value=" + value == null ? "null" : value.ToString());
output.Append(Environment.NewLine);

OutputTextBlock.Text = output.ToString();
