Hi people,

I'm hoping to pick your brains on  the "best way" of reading an XML file in SL 
2. J

I've seen a few different approaches floating around on the web and I've listed 
some below.


*         Add the XML document as an Embedded resource in the Silverlight 
project and then use XDocument.Load


*         Add the XML document to the Silverlight project and use the Webclient 
class, with a  relative path from the ClientBin directory.


*         Add the XML document to the Web project calling the Silverlight 
project and use the HttpWebRequest class with a absolute path to the file.

The way I understand it, if you embed the resource it will get downloaded in 
the .xap file and I guess if it's a small file this could be appropriate?
In regards to the two other I don't know if there's a difference but using the 
HttpWebRequest seems like overkill if you're just reading in a simple file?

Basically I was hoping to get some thoughts and pointers on when what approach 
might be applicable.

Cheers,
Ola
