对于长XML文件感到抱歉，但这就是我正在使用的:) - 它实际上在每场比赛中包含更多的种族和马匹，但我已经缩短到只有几场比赛 - 我结束了发布限制的限制。基本上是马会，它包含了它的比赛和每场比赛中奔跑的马匹。
我习惯于使用和分离.csv文件并确保了这一点，但事情的进展看起来我将不得不开始阅读XML文件并相应地更新数据库。无论如何，我是XML和vb .NET的初学者（几个月的经验），并且应该不会在这么早就跳到这么复杂的XML文件中 - 我会在下面发布我的代码，如果有人可以的话指出我正确的方向（可能很多），并可能为我提供一些代码/教程，帮助我解决这个XML文件，然后我将非常感激。
我要做的是填充三种不同的结构; Meeting，Race和Horse，以及XML文件中的相应信息。我可以自己解决数据库更新问题，我相信（希望如此）：D
Public Sub ExtractionService(ByVal spfile As FileInfo)
Dim strreader As New StreamReader(_sendpathname & spfile.Name, System.Text.Encoding.UTF8)
Dim xmlreader As XmlTextReader = New XmlTextReader(strreader)
xmlreader.WhitespaceHandling = WhitespaceHandling.None
Dim xmldoc As New XmlDocument()
xmldoc.Load(xmlreader)
Dim xml_nodelist As XmlNodeList = xmldoc.GetElementsByTagName("/HorseRacingCard/Meeting/Race/Horse")
Dim mStatus As String
Dim mID As Integer
Dim mCountry As String
Dim mCourse As String
Dim mDate As Integer
Dim mDrawAdvantage As String
Dim mAdvancedGoing As String
For Each mxmlnode As XmlNode In xmldoc.GetElementsByTagName("Meeting")
mStatus = mxmlnode.Attributes.ItemOf("status").InnerText
mID = mxmlnode.Attributes.ItemOf("id").InnerText
mCountry = mxmlnode.Attributes.ItemOf("country").InnerText
mCourse = mxmlnode.Attributes.ItemOf("course").InnerText
mDate = mxmlnode.Attributes.ItemOf("date").InnerText
mDrawAdvantage = mxmlnode.SelectSingleNode("DrawAdvantage").InnerText
mAdvancedGoing = mxmlnode.SelectSingleNode("AdvancedGoing").InnerText
_meeting.meetingStatus = mStatus
_meeting.meetingID = mID
_meeting.country = mCountry
_meeting.course = mCourse
_meeting.meetingDate = mDate
_meeting.drawAdvantage = mDrawAdvantage
_meeting.advancedGoing = mAdvancedGoing
Next
End Sub
这段代码设法成功地填充了我的会议结构，但我无法弄清楚我会去填充种族和马结构:( - 我已经按照了一些教程，似乎无法理解我的头脑我知道我可能在这里采取了错误的路线，并且我可能需要添加/改变这一点以使其按照我希望的方式运行。一旦这些添加和更改突出显示，我相信我可以研究这些领域，并使用你们希望为我提供的代码，尝试解决这个问题。
再一次，感谢所有帮助。

答案 0 :(得分：1)
在这样的情况下，通常最好让每个类都有自己的解析功能。层次结构中较高的类可以解析它们自己的信息，并将包含的类的元素传递给相应的方法。
此外，我更喜欢在XElement类上为XLINQ类（XmlDocument和朋友）提供的API和额外语法，因此我将在我的示例中使用它们。一般校长不会改变。
Class Meeting
'properties, etc
Public Shared Function Parse(element As XElement) As Meeting
'argument error checking here
Dim ret As New Meeting()
ret.Status = element.@status
ret.DrawAdvantage = element.<DrawAdvantage>.Value
'other properties
Dim parsedRaces = From re In element.<Race>
Select Race.Parse(re)
For Each r In parsedRaces
'add to meeting race collection
Next
Return ret
End Function
End Class
Class Race
'properties, etc
Public Shared Function Parse(element As XElement) As Race
'parse and return race data
End Function
End Class
通常，我不会在类本身上放置直接打开文件的方法。相反，无论什么类确定文件名（窗体，窗口，视图模型，应用程序）都将负责读取和写入XElement到文件。有时我甚至会将Parse（和相关的Save）方法移动到另一个类，如果有多种方式存储对象或存在其他分层问题。在任何一种情况下，我都会使parse方法创建并返回类的新实例，因此如果抛出异常，我不必担心部分变异的状态。
