ASP.NET : Get Attribute Value from XML

Vijay Jadhav

Hi Experts,

My Xml is :

I need to extract the value of xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation (ie. Sis.xsd).

How to get it ?

I have try below snippet, but it will show sXSDFile always null. Why ?

        public static bool ValidateXml(Stream oXmlStream)
        {
            string sXsdPath = "";
            string sXSDFile = "";
            try
            {
                XmlTextReader xmlTextReader = new XmlTextReader(oXmlStream);
                sXSDFile = xmlTextReader.GetAttribute("xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation");
            }

            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                _isValied = false;
            }
            return _isValied;
         }

Sample code would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi,
try this code

try

                XmlTextReader xmlTextReader = new XmlTextReader(oXmlStream);

                while (xmlTextReader.Read())

                    if (xmlTextReader.MoveToAttribute("xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation"))

                        sXSDFile = xmlTextReader.Value;

Hi Vimal,

We got it. Your snippet also work well.

Code snippet :

XmlTextReader xmlTextReader = new XmlTextReader(oXmlStream);
xmlTextReader.MoveToContent();
sGetXsdFileName = xmlTextReader.GetAttribute("xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation");

Thanks.
