Question

Consider the below xml file

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RootElement>
  <HomeSite>
    <Context enabled="1" active="1">
      <Culture>en-us</Culture>
      <Affiliate>0</Affiliate>
      <EmailAddress>[e-mail]</EmailAddress>
      <Password>sreesree1</Password>
    </Context>
  <Context enabled="0" active="1">
      <Culture>en-us</Culture>
      <Affiliate>0</Affiliate>
      <EmailAddress>[e-mail]</EmailAddress>
      <Password>sreesree1</Password>
    </Context>
  </HomeSite>
</RootElement>

At present I am doing

string applicationType="HomeSite";
    XDocument xmlSkuDescDoc = null;
    xmlSkuDescDoc = XDocument.Load(@"D:\Config.xml");
    var newContextElementCollection = new List<ContextElements>();
     //get the property and values
    (from data in xmlSkuDescDoc.Descendants(applicationType)
     select data)
     .Descendants("Context")
     .Elements()
     .ToList()
     .ForEach(i => newContextElementCollection.Add(new ContextElements { Property = i.Name.ToString(), Value = i.Value }));

Where

public class ContextElements
{
    public string Property { get; set; }
    public string Value { get; set; }
}

Now a new requirement has come where I need to pick up records for those context whose attribute value is enabled=”1″.

So how to do so?

Help needed.

What about this:

xmlSkuDescDoc.Descendants("Context")
                .Where(el => el.Attribute("enabled").Value == "1")
                .Elements()
                .ToList()
                .ForEach(i => newContextElementCollection.Add(new ContextElements { Property = i.Name.ToString(), Value = i.Value }));
