Efficient Parsing of XML

Question

Good day,

I\'m writing a program in C# .Net to manage products of my store,

Following a given link I can retrieve an XML file that contains all the possible

Answer 1

With large XML files you have to use an XmlReader. The code below will read one Product at a time.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Xml;
using System.Xml.Linq;

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            XmlReader reader = XmlReader.Create("filename");
            while(!reader.EOF)
            {
                if (reader.Name != "Product")
                {
                    reader.ReadToFollowing("Product");
                }
                if (!reader.EOF)
                {
                    XElement product = (XElement)XElement.ReadFrom(reader);
                    string lastUpdated = (string)product.Element("lastUpdated");
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
