Linq to XML in Axapta / X++ / Dynamics Ax

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 120

Hi there,

I would like to use "Linq to XML"  to create my XML. Could someone assist me how to use this in X ?

When i try to create xml,  X++  does not takes Implicit conversion of XName (.NET implicitly takes XName as String) parameter inside XElement class.

Syntax Error : 

Here is my  simple job which expects the output as <contacts /> tag

server static  void linq2xml()

{

System.Xml.Linq.XElement xRoot;
System.Xml.Linq.XName x1 = null;

;

x1 = "Contacts"

xRoot =     new System.Xml.Linq.XElement(x1); 

                print xRoot;

                pause;

}

    The following worked for me:

       System.Xml.Linq.XElement xRoot;

       System.Xml.Linq.XName x1 = System.Xml.Linq.XName::Get("contacts");

       ;

       xRoot = new System.Xml.Linq.XElement(x1);

       print xRoot.ToString();

       pause;

    I can't find "Linq" inside "System.Xml".

    Any idea?

    You have to add System.Xml.Linq in the AOT as a reference.  Then you will see it.
