[Mono-list] Modify XML Docs
Hi! Im creating an app (mBloggy, to post 'posts' to a blog), however I'm going to use a xml file to save the user configuration (the blogs). Today I can write (JUST new files), read it and identify some parts, but I dont undestand what the inet says about modifying xml files, so How can I modify an xml file? to modify nodes and remove elements, for example: Pablo Crypted Personal WebSite http://pablo.com.mx/xmlrpc.php ... the same..

Of course it will be free!, I think im in the 80% of the app, Im just in the 'user configuration' part and the 'format text' (bold, italics, underline, bla bla). But today I can 'talk' with the xmlrpc file in my server and post messages. > > Happy hacking > > > Thanks! > > -- > Martin Willemoes Hansen > > > E-Mail[EMAIL PROTECTED] Website mwh.sysrq.dk > IRC MWH, freenode.net > -- Pablo Fischer Sandoval (pablo [arroba/at] pablo.com.mx) http://www.pablo.com.mx http://www.debianmexico.org GPG FingerTip: 3D49 4CB8 8951 F2CA 8131 AF7C D1B9 1FB9 6B11 810C Firma URL: http://www.pablo.com.mx/firmagpg.txt ___ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list

This sounds like a prime candidate for XmlSerialization, use:
public class mbloggy {
public Account [] accounts;
}
public class account {
public string username;
public string password;
public string identifier;
public string url;
}
mbloggy m = new mbloggy ();
account a = new Account;
m.accounts = new Account [1];
m.accounts [0] = a;
a.username = "Miguel";
a.identifier = "...";
XmlSerializer s = new XmlSerializer (typeof (mbloggy));
s.Serialize (Console.Out, m);
Miguel

Re: [Mono-list] Modify XML Docs
Hello Miguel!
Well Im creating something like that, cause I'm loading the xmlfile
(LoadConfigFile) in a struct like this:
private struct ConfigInfo {
string username;
string password;
string url;
string identifier;
}
So if the file exists I 'load' the file in a struct
ConfigInfo[] configtmp = new ConfigInfo[node_username.Count];
And then start 'saving' the xml data in the struct.
Once I have the configtmp loaded I just use it every time I need some
information. But what happens if the user wants to remove an account or
modify something (like the password), how can I save that to my xml
file?
Thanks!

You can use an array list so you can add/remove accounts (see the msdn
docs)

you can modify the information

Reserialize it. Read the msdn docs.
As well, both monologue and monodoc have some examples of Xml
Serialization, you may want to check them out.

Re: [Mono-list] Modify XML Docs
Hi! Ok, I'll check the xml serialization, however the configuration NEEDS to be saved in a file, not in 'the fly', so every change to the accounts needs to be saved to the file (and then to the array, an array list or a struct array).

That is the beauty of the XmlSerializer: You provide it with your
structured data, and it will take care of the file format used.
If you add/remove accounts in your program, you will be making changes
to the actual data structures. Then the serializer will write out and
read-in the structures for you.

Re: [Mono-list] Modify XML Docs
Hi! Yeah, I didnt know that, now I'm using two classes, arraylist (in one class) and the XmlSerializer and I can add, remove and modify accounts. And everytime the user want's to exit from mBloggy the XmlSerializer will update the XmlFile. Thanks!

Re: [Mono-list] Modify XML Docs (part 2)
Uhm..
After sending the last reply I think in that option..
1. Load the xml file like you and Miguel says
2. Work in the array list with add/remove
3. After closing the app (delete_event), creates the new xml file
Is it a good idea?
Thanks!
