Just a quick plug. I'm doing a couple of sessions at TechEd Europe which begins week commencing 5th November in Barcelona. TLA309 LINQ to XML: Using the Language Integrated Query (LINQ) Framework with XML Data XML developers have had to learn a combination of APIs and query languages in order to work effectively with XML. In this talk we will introduce Language Integrated Query (LINQ) to XML, a component of the LINQ project designed to improve XML data programmability from C# and Visual Basic. LINQ to XML allows developers to load, query, transform, and update XML data using modern, easy to use programming features, and don’t require knowledge of related technologies such as DOM, XPath, XSLT, and the details of namespace binding. This presentation will present the high points of the LINQ to XML API, show how it extends the LINQ query operators to work with XML data, and work through realistic examples that show how processing XML data can be less painful, and almost fun.
