Dynamically set XElement Select Conditions

Question

User364803292 posted

Hello

I need to select a number of decendant elements from an xml document.

Currently I have the following:

myXElement.Descendants().
                Where(x => x.Name == "MySubNodeName").ToList().
                    ForEach(x => myObjectList.Add(SetUpObjectFromNode(x)));

What I need is to get the node names that set the where clause from a database or an app.config file.

So I will have a list of Strings that must form the where conditions.

eg. if the list of conditions returned from db or app.config is:

List<String> conditions = new List<String>{"MySubNodeName1", "MySubNodeName2", "MySubNodeName3"}

the select from myXElement must become:

myXElement.Descendants().
                Where(x => x.Name == "MySubNodeName1" || x.Name == "MySubNodeName2" || x.Name == "MySubNodeName3" || ).ToList().
                    ForEach(x => myObjectList.Add(SetUpObjectFromNode(x)));

Is that possible?
