While loading XML file in a C# application, I am getting
Name cannot begin with the ‘1’ character, hexadecimal value 0x31.
Line 2, position 2.
The XML tag begins like this.
<version="1.0" encoding="us-ascii" standalone="yes" />
<1212041205115912>
I am not supposed to change this tag at any cost.
How can I resolve this?
IF you absolutely cant change it, eg. for some reason the format is already out in the wild and used by other systems/customers/whatever.
Since it is an invalid xml document, try to clean it up before parsing it.
eg. make a regex that replaces all < number> tags with < IMessedUp>number< /IMessedUp> and then parse it.
Sort of iffy way to do it, but I will solve your problem.
