Get the Elements and Attribute Value from XML

This article will learn you to read required element and attribute Value from Xml file to a List Object.

See XML File, that I am using for this Example: file.xml

XML file contains list of Airline names with their stops, fares and other information. I've to Read all the Airline Name with Their Fares,Stops and other respective information in a List Object.

See the Code Example:

   class TopDeals

    {

        public string Name { get; set; }

        public decimal Price { get; set; }

        public string Stops { get; set; }

        public string Currency { get; set; }

        public List<TopDeals> lstDeals { get; set; }

    }

The above class contains the properties of TopDeals Type that contanis all the required properties.
The Code for reading the Elements Value is below.

class Program

    {

        static void Main(string[] args)

        {

            XElement root = XElement.Load(@"file.xml");

            var rootElem = root.Elements("Airlines").ToList();

            TopDeals obj = new TopDeals();

            obj.lstDeals = new List<TopDeals>();

            foreach (var item in rootElem)

            {

                TopDeals obj2 = new TopDeals();

                obj2.Name = item.Attribute("name").Value;

                obj2.Price = Convert.ToDecimal(item.Element("stops").Attribute("Fare").Value);

                obj2.Stops = item.Element("stops").Attribute("stop").Value.ToString();

                obj2.Currency = item.Element("stops").Attribute("Currency").Value.ToString();

                obj.lstDeals.Add(obj2);

            }

            var lstData = obj.lstDeals.OrderBy(a => a.Price);

        }

    }

In lstData object you will get the all Airlines Name with their other information.
