Reading from and Writing to an Xml File

Hi,

Try this,

Person is an Entity.

GeneratePersonData() is a method which returns collection of persons data.

For writing---

XmlWriterSettings xmlWriterSettings = new XmlWriterSettings();
xmlWriterSettings.Indent = true;

using (IsolatedStorageFile myIsolatedStorage = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication())
{
using (IsolatedStorageFileStream stream = myIsolatedStorage.OpenFile("People.xml", FileMode.Create))
{
XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(List));
using (XmlWriter xmlWriter = XmlWriter.Create(stream, xmlWriterSettings))
{
serializer.Serialize(xmlWriter, GeneratePersonData());
}
}
}

For reading------

using (IsolatedStorageFile myIsolatedStorage = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication())
{
using(IsolatedStorageFileStream stream = myIsolatedStorage.OpenFile("People.xml", FileMode.Open))
{
XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(List));
List data = (List)serializer.Deserialize(stream);
this.listBox.ItemsSource = data;
}
}
