Subject: CData Node WriteTree

It appears CData was left out of Node WriteTree method. Is there a reason this was left out, and if so is there another approach to include cdata tags?

It seems to me the following snippet could be included in the WriteTree method.

else if (e.NodeType == NodeType.Cdata)
      {
      tw.WriteCData(e.Value);
      }

xmpp is only a subset of xml. For this reason only the stuff needed is included.
If you need CDATA we can check and include it, if it breaks no other code and compatibility.

Yes, please add it in if you can. I am sending custom objects in RPC request/response to a java xmpp api and it is expecting cdata tags around these objects.

you have to read CDATA only, or also write CDATA?
There is currently nothing in agsXMPP.Xm which would allow you to write CDATA nodes.

I had to modify your write value method.. By doing this along with adding the tw.WriteCData(e.Value); previously metioned I am able create CData Nodes and write CData. I am sure this could be more robust, but the idea is there. By the way, you removed the Element Constructor that I was using, it allowed NodeType to be passed. I dont really need it, but I saw a post where you mentioned removing it. I believe the reading of cdata is automatically being handled. I am referring to the writing of cdata. Thanks again for the help.

public static void WriteValue(object param, Element parent, bool isCdata)
      {
      Element value = new Element("value");

      if (param is String)
      {
      Element str = new Element("string");

      if (isCdata)
      {
      Element cdata = new Element();
      cdata.Value = param; // some serialized object
      cdata.NodeType = NodeType.Cdata;
      str.AddChild(cdata);
      value.AddChild(str);
      }
      else
      {
      value.AddChild(new Element("string", param as string));
      }
      }
