How to: Save to and Load from Isolated Storage with LINQ to XML

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

In Silverlight you can load and save files by using classes defined in the System.IO.IsolatedStorage namespace. Other ways of loading files are:

To configure a Silverlight Visual Studio project to run this example

  1. Modify your page.xaml file so that it includes the following TextBlock element:

    <TextBlock x:Name ="OutputTextBlock" Canvas.Top ="10" TextWrapping="Wrap"/>
    
  2. In the page.xaml.cs (page.xaml.vb in Visual Basic) source file for your application, add the following using statements (Imports in Visual Basic):

    Imports System.IO
    Imports System.Xml.Linq
    Imports System.IO.IsolatedStorage
    
    using System.IO;
    using System.Xml.Linq;
    using System.IO.IsolatedStorage;
    

Example

The following example obtains the isolated storage for the user. It then saves the file to an application's isolated storage and later loads the file from an isolated storage.

        Dim srcTree As XDocument = _
            <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
            <!--This is a comment-->
            <Root>
                <Child1>data1</Child1>
                <Child2>data2</Child2>
            </Root>

        Using isoStore As IsolatedStorageFile = _
                     IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication()

            Using isoStream As IsolatedStorageFileStream = _
                New IsolatedStorageFileStream("myFile.xml", FileMode.Create, isoStore)
                srcTree.Save(isoStream)
            End Using
        End Using


        Using isoStore As IsolatedStorageFile = _
            IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication()
            Using isoStream As IsolatedStorageFileStream = _
                New IsolatedStorageFileStream("myFile.xml", FileMode.Open, isoStore)
                Dim doc1 As XDocument = XDocument.Load(isoStream)
                OutputTextBlock.Text = doc1.ToString()
            End Using
        End Using

XDocument doc = new XDocument(
                    new XComment("This is a comment"),
                    new XElement("Root",
                        new XElement("Child1", "data1"),
                        new XElement("Child2", "data2")
                    )
                );

using (IsolatedStorageFile isoStore = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication())
{
    using (IsolatedStorageFileStream isoStream =
        new IsolatedStorageFileStream("myFile.xml", FileMode.Create, isoStore))
    {
        doc.Save(isoStream);
    }
}

using (IsolatedStorageFile isoStore = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication())
{
    using (IsolatedStorageFileStream isoStream = new IsolatedStorageFileStream("myFile.xml", FileMode.Open, isoStore))
    {
        XDocument doc1 = XDocument.Load(isoStream);
        OutputTextBlock.Text = doc1.ToString();
    }
}
