I have an XML document that contains a series of item nodes that look like this:
<data>
<item>
<label>XYZ</label>
<description>lorem ipsum</description>
<parameter type="id">123</parameter>
<parameter type="name">Adam Savage</parameter>
<parameter type="zip">90210</parameter>
</item>
</data>
and I want to LINQ it into an anonymous type like this:
var mydata =
(from root in document.Root.Elements("item")
select new {
label = (string)root.Element("label"),
description = (string)root.Element("description"),
id = ...,
name = ...,
zip = ...
});
What's the best way to pull each parameter type according to the value of its 'type' attribute? Since there are many parameter elements you wind up with root.Elements("parameter")
which is a collection. The best way I can think to do it is like this by method below but I feel like there must be a better way?
(from c in root.Descendants("parameter") where (string)c.Attribute("type") == "id"
select c.Value).SingleOrDefault()
