Question

EDIT: Switched from XmlTextWriter to XElement

I have a Player class, which has following variables:

static string Name;
static int Level;
static int Cash;

And I’ve saved them into a “Profiles.xml” file with XElement, it now looks like this:

<John>
    <level>3</level>
    <cash>215</cash>
</John>

<Mike>
    <level>7</level>
    <cash>780</cash>
</Mike>

Now if I have name, fe. Mike, how do I get the cash and level?

Answer 1

Here you go..

XDocument doc = XDocument.Parse(@"
<Players><John>
<level>3</level>
<cash>215</cash>
</John>
<Mike>
<level>7</level>
<cash>780</cash>
</Mike>
</Players>");

var players = doc.Root.Elements();

foreach (var player in players)
{
    if (player.Name.ToString() == "Mike")
    {
        Console.WriteLine(player.Element("level"));
        Console.WriteLine(player.Element("cash"));
    }
}
