XmlNode.CloneNode(Boolean) Method

Definition

Creates a duplicate of the node, when overridden in a derived class.

public:
 abstract System::Xml::XmlNode ^ CloneNode(bool deep);
public abstract System.Xml.XmlNode CloneNode (bool deep);
abstract member CloneNode : bool -> System.Xml.XmlNode
Public MustOverride Function CloneNode (deep As Boolean) As XmlNode

Parameters

deep
Boolean

true to recursively clone the subtree under the specified node; false to clone only the node itself.

Returns

The cloned node.

Exceptions

Calling this method on a node type that cannot be cloned.

Examples

The following example shows the difference between a deep and shallow clone.

#using <System.Xml.dll>

using namespace System;
using namespace System::IO;
using namespace System::Xml;
int main()
{
   XmlDocument^ doc = gcnew XmlDocument;
   doc->LoadXml( "<book ISBN='1-861001-57-5'>"
   "<title>Pride And Prejudice</title>"
   "<price>19.95</price>"
   "</book>" );
   XmlNode^ root = doc->FirstChild;
   
   //Create a deep clone.  The cloned node 
   //includes the child nodes.
   XmlNode^ deep = root->CloneNode( true );
   Console::WriteLine( deep->OuterXml );
   
   //Create a shallow clone.  The cloned node does not 
   //include the child nodes, but does include its attribute.
   XmlNode^ shallow = root->CloneNode( false );
   Console::WriteLine( shallow->OuterXml );
}
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Xml;

public class Sample {

  public static void Main() {

    XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
    doc.LoadXml("<book ISBN='1-861001-57-5'>" +
                "<title>Pride And Prejudice</title>" +
                "<price>19.95</price>" +
                "</book>");

    XmlNode root = doc.FirstChild;

    //Create a deep clone.  The cloned node
    //includes the child nodes.
    XmlNode deep = root.CloneNode(true);
    Console.WriteLine(deep.OuterXml);

    //Create a shallow clone.  The cloned node does not
    //include the child nodes, but does include its attribute.
    XmlNode shallow = root.CloneNode(false);
    Console.WriteLine(shallow.OuterXml);
  }

        'include the child nodes, but does include its attribute.

Remarks

This method serves as a copy constructor for nodes. The duplicate node has no parent (ParentNode returns null).

Comment Clones the comment node, including its text content. Clones the comment node, including its text content.
Document Clones the document node, including any child nodes. Clones the document node.
DocumentFragment Clones the document fragment node, including any child nodes. Clones the document fragment node.
DocumentType Clones the document type node. Clones the document type node.
Element Clones the element node, its attributes, and any child nodes. Clones the element node and its attributes, including any default attributes.
Entity Entity nodes cannot be cloned. Entity nodes cannot be cloned.
EntityReference Clones the entity reference node. The replacement text is not included. Clones the entity reference node. The replacement text is not included.
Notation Notation nodes cannot be cloned. Notation nodes cannot be cloned.
ProcessingInstruction Clones the processing instruction node, including its target and data. Clones the processing instruction node, including its target and data.
