NodeList Property

Gets or sets a reference to the XmlNodeList object that is the result of applying the XPath pattern provided in the RecordsetPattern property.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Property NodeList As XmlNodeList

public XmlNodeList NodeList {get; set;}

Property Value

An XmlNodeList object.

Remarks

You can set the NodeList property to your own XmlNodeList object without setting the FileURL or RecordsetPattern. This can be useful in subreports where the parent report sets the NodeList of the subreport data source from one of its fields (returned from the Field method as an XmlNodeList).

Example

Paste into the Detail Format event.

DataDynamics.ActiveReports.DataSources.XMLDataSource xDS = new DataDynamics.ActiveReports.DataSources.XMLDataSource();
    ActiveReport1 rpt = new ActiveReport1();

    xDS.ValidateOnParse = true;
    xDS.FileURL = System.Windows.Forms.Application.StartupPath + " \\customer.xml";
    xDS.RecordsetPattern = "//ITEM";
    xDS.NodeList = (System.Xml.XmlNodeList)ds.Field("ITEM",true);
    this.Label1.Text = xDS.CurrentPosition;
    Console.WriteLine(xDS.Count.ToString());

    if (xDS.BOF && xDS.EOF)
    {
        return;
    }

Paste into the Detail Format event.

Visual Basic

Dim xDS As New DataDynamics.ActiveReports.DataSources.XMLDataSource()
    Dim rpt As New ActiveReport1()

    xDS.ValidateOnParse = True
    xDS.FileURL = System.Windows.Forms.Application.StartupPath + " \\customer.xml"
    xDS.RecordsetPattern = "//ITEM"
    xDS.NodeList = xDS.Field("ITEM", True)
    Me.Label1.Text = xDS.CurrentPosition
    Console.WriteLine(xDS.Count.ToString())

    If xDS.BOF & xDS.EOF Then
        Exit Sub
    End If
