Help Creating XmlNode / XmlAttribute Elegantly
I am creating a configuration class to read / write a standard configuration file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<appSettings>
<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=(local);" />
</appSettings>
</configuration>
I am using a XmlDocument for my base implementation.
I am looking to see if there is a better way to add a new node / attribute than using
XmlDocument.InnerXml. I would consider this to be a hack but couldn't really see another
way of doing this without defining namespaces and the like.
I have included the full file below and the lines that I am wondering about are lines: 79, 227, and 266
Thanks,
Dave

The example XML you've given doesn't contain any namespaces,
so why should you define one?
Have a look at the CreateElement() and CreateAttribute()
methods of XmlDocument, and then AppendChild() on XmlNode
(and remember that XmlDocument is an XmlNode, so it also
allows you to AppendChild() nodes to it).
> the lines that I am wondering about are lines: 79, 227,

79: xmlDoc.InnerXml = "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?><configuration></configuration>";
If you set UTF-8 Encoding on an I/O Stream wrapped by an
XmlTextWriter (or TextWriter), this XML declaration will
be emitted for you automatically.
Here's how you'd create a custom XmlDeclaration for the
XmlDocument (note that if you do Save this XML to a
TextWriter-based class, its Encoding takes precedence).
XmlDeclaration xmlDecl = xmlDoc.CreateXmlDeclaration("1.0", "utf-8", "");
Then you'd want to create your <configuration> element.
XmlElement eRoot = xmlDoc.CreateElement( "configuration");
Finally, add the root element to XmlDocument and insert
the XmlDeclaration before it,
xmlDoc.AppendChild( eRoot);
xmlDoc.InsertBefore( xmlDecl, eRoot);
: :
223: StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(500);
224: sb.Append("<add key=\""); sb.Append(key); sb.Append("\" ");
225: sb.Append("value=\""); sb.Append(keyValue); sb.Append("\" />");
226:
227: node.InnerXml += sb.ToString();
XmlElement eAdd = xmlDoc.CreateElement( "add");
eAdd.SetAttribute( "key", key);
eAdd.SetAttribute( "value", keyValue);
node.AppendChild( eAdd);
: :
264: sb.Append("</"); sb.Append(section); sb.Append(">");
265:
266: node.InnerXml += sb.ToString();
Your example code never gives a value to the argument,
section, but from your example XML I'll guess it's
<appSettings> (although I don't see where you have
inserted the child node between the start and end
elements).
XmlElement eAppSettings = xmlDoc.CreateElement( "appSettings");
eAppSettings.AppendChild( eAdd);
eRoot.AppendChild( eAppSettings);
These three statements essentially tie together the
entire configuration document's XML nodes.
It looks like you own (because you want to own?) the
entire configuration file, but I'll also point out that
in the .NET Framework's System.Configuration namespace
are classes automatically supporting this configuration
schema to read a config file from "application.exe.config"
or "web.config".
Using the built-in configuration file support allows you
to create the element,
<add name="key" value="keyValue" />
in a single statement like this,
ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings[ key] = keyValue;
with the default NameValueSectionHandler.

CString help
I'm looking at a website on CString Management: http://www.codeproject.com:80/string/cstringmgmt.asp In the section entitled, "CString to char * II: Using GetBuffer," the author stresses calling ReleaseBuffer after calling GetBuffer. Is this always necessary? I often use CString::GetBuffer when using CStrings in MessageBox dialogs like so: MessageBox(m_hWnd, cString.GetBuffer(0), lpTitle, MB_OK); Should I be adding a ReleaseBuffer after a MessageBox call? Should I be passing my string data to the MessageBox in another way? Regards, Joe > Is this always necessary?...

I have an application with a .chm help-file. But I have some questions about the behaviour of the help-window. I use a modal application window and I can start the help. The help windows appears but it is allways in foreground of my application window.

So I have to close the help window or minimize it or move it aside of my application window when I want to go on in my application. The other problem is when I minimize the help window and then open a dialog...
