writing to xml file

[BrettW]

Hi everyone.

 

I am wondering how to write to an xml file.

This is the xml file that i made in notepad and i want it to write to it:

 

<blacklist>

<name>mspaint</name

<name>notepad</name>

</blacklist>

 

i want it to add another 'name' node and put text in it.

 

:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

There are several ways you could do this, XmlWriter is a fairly low level mechanism but might be suitable if you are maintaining a simple structure.

 

An alternative route could be using the DOM via XmlDocument class.

 

Personally I would tend towards using XmlSerialization as it gives a cleaner code model in my opinion.
