Creating an RSS Feed

David P. Donahue · Mar 23, 2005

Does anyone know of any good resources (articles, etc.) for creating
one's own RSS feed on a website (either as a service or a page or
whatever)? Not so much 3rd party tools that do it for you, but a
general guide for coding one into one's own project.

The data source would be a DataSet from a web service I have for
accessing my database, so that's simple enough. I figure I could
hand-code the XML and return it, but that might get messy. Given that
RSS is such a widely-used standard, I'm wondering if the wheel has
already been invented for this. Maybe there are tools within .NET (I'm
using Visual Studio 2003) to help? Any ideas?

Regards,
David P. Donahue
