IXMLDOMNode.nextSibling (C#)

The nextSibling property contains the next sibling of this node in the parent's child list.

Syntax

  IXMLDOMNode = IXMLDOMNode.nextSibling;

Remarks

The property is read-only. It returns the next sibling of the current node.

The value of the IXMLDOMNode object returned depends on the type of node on which the nextSibling property is called, as shown in the following table. For example, if the node type is NODE_ELEMENT, an IXMLDOMNode object is returned containing the next node following that element node.

Node type Value returned
NODE_ATTRIBUTE
NODE_DOCUMENT		 Always returns NULL; these node types do not appear as children of any other nodes.
NODE_COMMENT
NODE_ELEMENT
NODE_PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION
NODE_TEXT		 Returns the node immediately following this node in the list of children of this node's parent. If no such node exists, it returns NULL.

Example Code

The following example creates an IXMLDOMNode object and sets it to the next sibling of the current node.

using Microsoft.WindowsMediaServices.Interop;
using interop_msxml;

// Declare variables.
WMSServer Server;
IXMLDOMDocument Playlist;
IXMLDOMNode currNode;
IXMLDOMNode nextNode;

try {
    // Create a new WMSServer object.
    Server = new WMSServerClass();

    // Create a new playlist object.
    Playlist = Server.CreatePlaylist();

    // Load a playlist.
    Playlist.load("file://c:\\wmpub\\wmroot\\simple.wsx");

    // Retrieve the first child node of the root element.
    currNode = Playlist.documentElement.childNodes[0];

    // Retrieve the next child node of the root element.
    nextNode = currNode.nextSibling;
}
catch (Exception e) {
    // TODO: Handle exceptions.
}
