XPathNavigator.OuterXml Property

Definition

Gets or sets the markup representing the opening and closing tags of the current node and its child nodes.

public:
 virtual property System::String ^ OuterXml { System::String ^ get(); void set(System::String ^ value); };
public virtual string OuterXml { get; set; }
member this.OuterXml : string with get, set
Public Overridable Property OuterXml As String

Property Value

A String that contains the markup representing the opening and closing tags of the current node and its child nodes.

Examples

The following example uses the OuterXml property to display the contents of the first book element in the contosoBooks.xml file, its child nodes, and its opening and closing tags in the XPathNavigator.

XPathDocument^ document = gcnew XPathDocument("contosoBooks.xml");
XPathNavigator^ navigator = document->CreateNavigator();

navigator->MoveToChild("bookstore", "http://www.contoso.com/books");
navigator->MoveToChild("book", "http://www.contoso.com/books");

Console::WriteLine(navigator->OuterXml);
XPathDocument document = new XPathDocument("contosoBooks.xml");
XPathNavigator navigator = document.CreateNavigator();

navigator.MoveToChild("bookstore", "http://www.contoso.com/books");
navigator.MoveToChild("book", "http://www.contoso.com/books");

Console.WriteLine(navigator.OuterXml);
Dim document As XPathDocument = New XPathDocument("contosoBooks.xml")
Dim navigator As XPathNavigator = document.CreateNavigator()

navigator.MoveToChild("bookstore", "http://www.contoso.com/books")
navigator.MoveToChild("book", "http://www.contoso.com/books")

Console.WriteLine(navigator.OuterXml)

The example takes the contosoBooks.xml file as an input.

Remarks

Note

The InnerXml and OuterXml properties are not very efficient. If performance is a priority, it is more efficient to use the node navigation methods of the XPathNavigator to get values of child nodes.
