What's your favorite way to read XML files?

Let's take this xml structure as an example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Configuration-content>
  <XFile Name="file name 1" />
  <XFile Name="name2" />
  <XFile Name="name3" />
  <XFile Name="name4" />
</Configuration-content>

C # interface for implementation:

public class Configuration
{
    public XFile[] Files { get; set; }
}

public interface IConfigurationRipository
{
    Configuration Get();
    void Save(Configuration entity);
}

I wonder what is the best way to do this.

The challenge is to implement IConfigurationRipository

using your favorite approach.

Is there a reason not to use XML Serialization ?



using (Stream myStream = new FileStream(fileName, FileMode.Open))
{
    XmlSerializer xs = new XmlSerializer(typeof(XConfiguration));
    XConfiguration config = xs.Deserialize(myStream) as XConfiguration;
}

The easiest way for this simple XML format is to use a DataSet object (.readXML ()). Here is a simple example application that does this - and displays the contents of the DataSet in a tree / grid format: http://www.dot-dash-dot.com/files/WTFXMLSetup_1_8_0.msi . Here is the source for this program: http://www.dot-dash-dot.com/files/wtfxml.zip .
