How to write xml editor with c#?

Guest

Hi everyone,

I want to do something like XMLSpy or may tools like DreamweaverMX.

1) When you type this:

Before:
========
<MyCompany> //then the xml editor will automatically add the

After:
=======
<MyCompany></MyCompany>

I just want to do a very simple xml editor for c#. And at the end, save it into a xml file. I had been coding xml in notepad, and it is very troublesome.

I am not sure what areas i need to research in. Is there any tutorial on this or any source code, which i can refer to?

Any help, please?

Thanks.

If you just want an xml editor, grab any of the following (free {beed}):

-Xml Notepad
-XCootop (I use that)

It shouldnt be too difficult to write your own but still, with so many good ones out their, why bother. Liquid Studio is pretty good (http://www.liquid-technologies.com/xml-editor.aspx).

But if you really want to write your own, this resource might help.

Almost all editor's/IDE's has some XML support today.

If I understand it correct then it is a text editor that can save
the text wrapped as OOXML.

Which is not really an XML editor.
