<Extension()>
Public Function DescendantNodes(Of T As XContainer) (source As IEnumerable(Of T)) As IEnumerable(Of XNode)

Type Parameters

T

The type of the objects in source, constrained to XContainer.

Parameters

source: IEnumerable<T>

An IEnumerable<T> of XContainer that contains the source collection.

Returns

IEnumerable<XNode>

An IEnumerable<T> of XNode of the descendant nodes of every document and element in the source collection.

Examples

The following example retrieves a collection of two elements, and then retrieves a collection of all descendant nodes for every element in the source collection. Note that the attribute of the GrandChild element is not surfaced as a node.

XElement xmlTree = XElement.Parse(  
@"<Root>  
    <Child>aaa<GrandChild anAttribute='xyz'>Text</GrandChild>  
        <!--a comment-->  
        <?xml-stylesheet type='text/xsl' href='test.xsl'?>  
    </Child>  
    <Child>ccc<GrandChild>Text</GrandChild>ddd</Child>  
</Root>");  
IEnumerable<XNode> nodes =  
    from node in xmlTree.Elements("Child").DescendantNodes()  
    select node;  

foreach (XNode node in nodes)  
{  
    switch (node.NodeType)  
    {  
        case XmlNodeType.Element:  
            Console.WriteLine("Element: {0}", ((XElement)node).Name);  
            break;  
        case XmlNodeType.Text:  
            Console.WriteLine("Text: {0}", ((XText)node).Value);  
            break;  
        case XmlNodeType.Comment:  
            Console.WriteLine("Comment: {0}", ((XComment)node).Value);  
            break;  
        case XmlNodeType.ProcessingInstruction:  
            Console.WriteLine("PI: {0}", ((XProcessingInstruction)node).Data);  
            break;  
    }  
}

Dim xmlTree As XElement = _  
<Root>  
    <Child>aaa<GrandChild anAttribute='xyz'>Text</GrandChild>  
        <!--a comment-->  
        <?xml-stylesheet type='text/xsl' href='test.xsl'?>  
    </Child>  
    <Child>ccc<GrandChild>Text</GrandChild>ddd</Child>  
</Root>  

Dim nodes As IEnumerable(Of XNode) = _  
    From node In xmlTree.<Child>.DescendantNodes _  
    Select node  

For Each node As XNode In nodes  
    Select Case node.NodeType  
        Case XmlNodeType.Element  
            Console.WriteLine("Element: {0}", DirectCast(node, XElement).Name)  
        Case XmlNodeType.Text  
            Console.WriteLine("Text: {0}", DirectCast(node, XText).Value)  
        Case XmlNodeType.Comment  
            Console.WriteLine("Comment: {0}", DirectCast(node, XComment).Value)  
        Case XmlNodeType.ProcessingInstruction  
            Console.WriteLine("PI: {0}", DirectCast(node, XProcessingInstruction).Data)  
    End Select  
Next

This example produces the following output:

Text: aaa  
Element: GrandChild  
Text: Text  
Comment: a comment  
PI: type='text/xsl' href='test.xsl'  
Text: ccc  
Element: GrandChild  
Text: Text  
Text: ddd

The following is the same example, but in this case the XML is in a namespace. For more information, see Work with XML Namespaces.

XNamespace aw = "http://www.adventure-works.com";  
XElement xmlTree = XElement.Parse(  
@"<Root xmlns='http://www.adventure-works.com'>  
    <Child>aaa<GrandChild anAttribute='xyz'>Text</GrandChild>  
        <!--a comment-->  
        <?xml-stylesheet type='text/xsl' href='test.xsl'?>  
    </Child>  
    <Child>ccc<GrandChild>Text</GrandChild>ddd</Child>  
</Root>");  
IEnumerable<XNode> nodes =  
    from node in xmlTree.Elements(aw + "Child").DescendantNodes()  
    select node;  

foreach (XNode node in nodes)  
{  
    switch (node.NodeType)  
    {  
        case XmlNodeType.Element:  
            Console.WriteLine("Element: {0}", ((XElement)node).Name);  
            break;  
        case XmlNodeType.Text:  
            Console.WriteLine("Text: {0}", ((XText)node).Value);  
            break;  
        case XmlNodeType.Comment:  
            Console.WriteLine("Comment: {0}", ((XComment)node).Value);  
            break;  
        case XmlNodeType.ProcessingInstruction:  
            Console.WriteLine("PI: {0}", ((XProcessingInstruction)node).Data);  
            break;  
    }  
}

Text: ccc  
Element: {http://www.adventure-works.com}GrandChild  
Text: Text  
Text: ddd

Remarks

This axis extension method is used on XDocument and XElement objects. Both of these types derive from XContainer, so this method operates on an IEnumerable<T> of XContainer that contains the source collection.

Although Visual Basic has an integrated XML axis for descendant elements, there is no integrated axis for descendant nodes, so Visual Basic users must use this axis method explicitly.

This method uses deferred execution.
