My current LINQ query and example
XML are below. What I'd like to do is select the primary email address from the email-addresses element into the User.Email property. The type element under the email-address element is set to primary when this is true. There may be more than one element under the email-addresses but only one will be marked primary.
What is the simplest approach to take here?
Current Linq Query (User.Email is currently empty):
var users = from response in xdoc.Descendants("response")
where response.Element("id") != null
select new User
{
Id = (string)response.Element("id"),
Name = (string)response.Element("full-name"),
Email = (string)response.Element("email-addresses"),
JobTitle = (string)response.Element("job-title"),
NetworkId = (string)response.Element("network-id"),
Type = (string)response.Element("type")
};
