W3C制定了XML DOM标准，.Net为了支持W3C的标准，从1.1版本开始就引入了XmlDocument类。我在前一篇博客中，介绍了如何使用XmlDocument类来对XML文档进行操作。后来 .Net又引入了LINQ，于是LINQ to XML也就应运而生，所以在.Net中，不仅可以用W3C
XML DOM标准，还可以使用LINQ to XML来操作XML文档。下面就来简单介绍一下如何使用LINQ to XML。

（一） 加载

加载XML比较常用的有三种方法:

public static XDocument Load(string uri);

public static XDocument Load(Stream stream);

public static XDocument Parse(string text);

下面代码演示如何使用它们：

// public static XDocument Load(string uri);
// uri 即为要装载的文件名
var doc1 = XDocument.Load("XMLFile1.xml");

// public static XDocument Load(Stream stream);
Entity retrievedAnnotation = _orgService.Retrieve("annotation"
, new Guid("C1B13C7F-F430-E211-8FA1-984BE1731399"), new ColumnSet(true));
byte[] fileContent = Convert.FromBase64String(retrievedAnnotation["documentbody"].ToString());
MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(fileContent);
XDocument xDoc = XDocument.Load(ms);

// public static XDocument Parse(string text);
string str = @"<Customers><Customer id='01' city='Beijing' country='China' name='Lenovo'/></Customers>";
var doc2 = XDocument.Parse(str);

（二） 查询

我们以下面的XML文档为例：

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Customers>
<Customer id="01" city="Beijing" country="China">Lenovo
<Order OrderID="1001" Freight="36.00" />
<Order OrderID="1003" Freight="61.50" />
</Customer>
<Customer id="02" city="Amsterdam" country="The Netherlands">Shell
<Order OrderID="1002" Freight="56.65" />
<Order OrderID="1004" Freight="65.50" />
<Order OrderID="1005" Freight="100.50" />
</Customer>
</Customers>

1. 返回所有Customer 节点：

var result = from customer in doc1.Descendants("Customer")
select customer.Value;
foreach (var s in result)
{
Console.WriteLine(s);
}

输出结果:

Lenovo

Shell

2. 返回id为02并且 city 为 Amsterdam 的customer :

var result = (from customer in doc1.Descendants("Customer")
where (string)customer.Attribute("id") == "02" && (string)customer.Attribute("city") == "Amsterdam"
select customer.Value).FirstOrDefault();
Console.WriteLine(result);

输出结果：

Shell

3. 查找出 order ID 1003的customer ID和它的freight:

var result = (from order in doc1.Descendants("Order")
where order.Attribute("OrderID").Value == "1003"
select new
{
CustomerID = order.Parent.Attribute("id").Value,
Freight = (decimal)order.Attribute("Freight")
}).FirstOrDefault();
Console.WriteLine(string.Format("Customer ID: {0} Freight: {1}", result.CustomerID, result.Freight));

输出结果：

Customer ID: 01 Freight: 61.50

4. 查询每个客户的freight的总和

var result = from customer in doc1.Descendants("Customer")
select new
{
CustomerName = customer.Value,
TotalFreight = customer.Descendants("Order").Sum(o => (decimal)o.Attribute("Freight"))
};
foreach (var r in result)
{
Console.WriteLine(string.Format("Customer: {0} Total Freight: {1}", r.CustomerName, r.TotalFreight));
}

输出结果：

Customer: Lenovo Total Freight: 97.50

Customer: Shell Total Freight: 222.65

5. 使用LINQ to XML Join

Join可以用在LINQ to XML和其他的LINQ providers，比如说LINQ to Objects。下面的代码展示了如何将一个数组和一个XML文件Join起来。

string[] orders = {"1001", "2000", "1002"};
var result = from order in doc1.Descendants("Order")
join selected in orders
on (string)order.Attribute("OrderID") equals selected
select new
{
CustomerName = order.Parent.Value,
OrderID = selected,
Freight = (decimal)(order.Attribute("Freight"))
};
foreach (var r in result)
{
Console.WriteLine(string.Format("Customer ID: {0} Order:{1} Freight: {2}", r.CustomerName, r.OrderID, r.Freight));
}

输出结果：

Customer ID: Lenovo Order:1001 Freight: 36,00

Customer ID: Shell Order:1002 Freight: 56,65

（三） 创建

以创建以下XML文档为例：

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Customers>
<Customer id="01" city="Beijing" country="China" name="Lenovo">
<Order OrderID="1001" Freight="36.00" />
</Customer>
</Customers>

var doc = new XDocument(
new XElement("Customers",
new XElement("Customer",
new XAttribute("id", "01"),
new XAttribute("city", "Beijing"),
new XAttribute("country", "China"),
new XAttribute("name", "Lenovo"),
new XElement("Order",
new XAttribute("OrderID", "1001"),
new XAttribute("Freight", "36.00")
)
)
)
);

doc.Save("test.xml");

（四） 更改
以下面的XML文档为例

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Customers>
<Customer id="01" city="Beijing" country="China" name="Lenovo">
<Contact gender="female" title="Support">Li Li</Contact>
</Customer>
<Customer id="02" city="Amsterdam" country="The Netherlands" name="Shell">
<Contact gender="male" title="Sales Person">Aaron Babbitt</Contact>
<Contact gender="female" title="Sales Manager">Daisy Cabell</Contact>
<Contact gender="male" title="Sales Person">Gabriel Eads</Contact>
</Customer>
</Customers>

1. 将Contact Li Li更改为Evi

var node = (from x in doc1.Descendants("Contact")
where x.Value == "Li Li"
select x).FirstOrDefault();
node.Value = "Evi";

2. 将id为02的Customer的city属性更改为Den Haag

var node = (from x in doc1.Descendants("Customer")
where x.Attribute("id").Value == "02"
select x).FirstOrDefault();
node.Attribute("city").Value = "Den Haag";

3. 将id为02的Customer的所有下属Contact的title属性更改为Functional Consultant

var node = (from x in doc1.Descendants("Customer")
where x.Attribute("id").Value == "02"
select x).FirstOrDefault();
var nodelist = from x in node.Descendants("Contact")
select x;
nodelist.ToList().ForEach(x => x.Attribute("title").Value = "Functional Consultant");

（五） 删除节点还以下面的XML文档为例

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Customers>
<Customer id="01" city="Beijing" country="China" name="Lenovo">
<Contact gender="female" title="Support">Li Li</Contact>
</Customer>
<Customer id="02" city="Amsterdam" country="The Netherlands" name="Shell">
<Contact gender="male" title="Sales Person">Aaron Babbitt</Contact>
<Contact gender="female" title="Sales Manager">Daisy Cabell</Contact>
<Contact gender="male" title="Sales Person">Gabriel Eads</Contact>
</Customer>
</Customers>

1. 删除Contact Li Li节点

var node = (from x in doc1.Descendants("Contact")
where x.Value == "Li Li"
select x).FirstOrDefault();
node.Remove();

结果：

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Customers>
<Customer id="01" city="Beijing" country="China" name="Lenovo" />
<Customer id="02" city="Amsterdam" country="The Netherlands" name="Shell">
<Contact gender="male" title="Sales Person">Aaron Babbitt</Contact>
<Contact gender="female" title="Sales Manager">Daisy Cabell</Contact>
<Contact gender="male" title="Sales Person">Gabriel Eads</Contact>
</Customer>
</Customers>

2. 删除Contact Li Li节点的父节点

var node = (from x in doc1.Descendants("Contact")
where x.Value == "Li Li"
select x).FirstOrDefault();
node.Parent.Remove();

结果：

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Customers>
<Customer id="02" city="Amsterdam" country="The Netherlands" name="Shell">
<Contact gender="male" title="Sales Person">Aaron Babbitt</Contact>
<Contact gender="female" title="Sales Manager">Daisy Cabell</Contact>
<Contact gender="male" title="Sales Person">Gabriel Eads</Contact>
</Customer>
</Customers>

（六） Namespace

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<root xmlns:h="http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/"
xmlns:f="http://www.w3schools.com/furniture">
<h:table>
<h:tr>
<h:td>Apples</h:td>
<h:td>Bananas</h:td>
</h:tr>
</h:table>
<f:table>
<f:name>African Coffee Table</f:name>
<f:width>80</f:width>
<f:length>120</f:length>
</f:table>
</root>

查询上面文档的第一个f:name节点

string f = @"http://www.w3schools.com/furniture";
var node = (from x in doc1.Descendants(XNamespace.Get(f) + "name")
select x).FirstOrDefault();
Console.WriteLine(node.Value);

总结：
1. XDocument提供了对XML文档在内存中的随机的读写操作。

2. XDocument使用LINQ to XML来读取XML结点。

3. 你可以通过LINQ投射(projection)来将XML变换为Object。

4. LINQ投射可以将XML变换为IEnumerable<String>。

5. LINQ投射可以将XML变换为其他格式的XML。
