How to handle multiple exceptions(Try..Catch)

[Richard Deeming]

1) It's not clear what you're trying to do here. You're not adding an element for each history item, so you don't need the Select; you just need to pass in the correct values to the elements.

rspxml.Root.Add(new XElement("PickupDueDateDetails"),
new XElement("Date", prc.PickupDueDate),
new XElement("UTCOffset", prc.PickupDueDateOffset)
);

2) You can't just change the type and expect the existing code to work. You need to fix the existing code to use the correct methods for the type. For example, this:

XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
doc.XmlResolver = null;
doc.LoadXml(xmlRequest);

would become:

XDocument doc = XDocument.Parse(xmlResult);

This:

string method = doc.FirstChild.Name;
XmlNode mainNode = doc.FirstChild;

if (method.ToLower() == "xml")
{
method = doc.FirstChild.NextSibling.Name;
mainNode = doc.FirstChild.NextSibling;
}

would become:

XElement mainNode = doc.Root;
string method = mainNode.Name.LocalName;
// No need to check for the processing instruction here...

This:

string pronum = mainNode.SelectSingleNode("TrackingNumber").InnerText;

would become:

string pronum = (string)mainNode.Element("TrackingNumber");

3) I don't know. Does it compile? Does it do what you expect it to do? I very much doubt that prc.History is the correct property to use for all of those elements.

1. This may help explain. This is some of the XML I am trying to write out:

LK

Am I doing a rspxml.Root.Add for each section or can I use like this:

new XElement("PickupStoreInfo",
new XElement("PickupDueDateDetails",
new XElement("Date", prc.History),
new XElement("UTCOffset", prc.History)
),

So based off this, how would that be written out in the code. 2) I updated the code and that seems to be working ok. 3) It does compile. And yes those are supposed to be prc.History. There are only two elements/fields that I'm concerned with and that is the Consignee and History so yes they should be prc.History. I just need to pull in the fields for in those two areas.

Since PickupDueDateDetails is a child of PickupStoreInfo, that's the correct way to do it. But passing prc.History as the value for every node isn't going to produce the correct values in the resulting XML. Instead, you'll get the result of calling prc.History.ToString() inserted into every node. If you don't need to pass a value in the node, it would be better to not pass a value to it, or exclude it from the document.

I have the same thing for prc.Consignee. So what would you suggest something like this:

),
new XElement("PickupStoreInfo",
new XElement("PickupDueDateDetails",
new XElement("Date"),
new XElement("UTCOffset")
),

I pretty much have to pass a value in the node or else how else would I get the values?

[Richard Deeming]

If you have to pass a value, then pass the value that the API is expecting. Passing the same (invalid) string for each node will most likely cause the API to return an error.

What would that be? Something like:

new XElement("PickupStoreInfo",
new XElement("PickupDueDateDetails",
new XElement("Date", Date),
new XElement("UTCOffset", UTCOffset)
),

Not sure???

[Richard Deeming]

Pass in the values that the API is expecting you to pass in for the request. You've presumably read the API documentation? The expected values should be documented there.

Yes i've read it and if that is the case then the values in the API are the same as the XElement so Here the a piece of the API schema:

Event Status

I guess it will look like this?

        new XElement("EventStatus", "Event Status"),
        
    ),

I guess it will look like this?

new XElement("EventStatus", "Event Status"),

),

Just need help with this and I think I'm done.

Someone please help me with this. I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks
