Descendants (XElement dynamic property) 10/22/2019 reference

Descendants (XElement dynamic property)

Gets an indexer used to retrieve all the descendant elements of the current element that match the specified expanded name.

Syntax

elem.Descendants[{namespaceName}localName]

Property value/return value

An indexer of the type IEnumerable<XElement> Item(String expandedName). This indexer takes the expanded name of the specified descendant elements and returns the matching child elements in an xref:System.Collections.IEnumerable<xref:System.Xml.Linq.XElement> collection.

Remarks

This property is equivalent to the xref:System.Xml.Linq.XContainer.Descendants(System.Xml.Linq.XName)?displayProperty=fullName method of the xref:System.Xml.Linq.XContainer class.

The elements in the returned collection are in XML source document order.

This property uses deferred execution.
