]XmlNode::get_ParentNode() method
Returns the parent of this node (for nodes that can have parents).
virtual SharedPtr<XmlNode> System::Xml::XmlNode::get_ParentNode() final
Return Value
The XmlNode that is the parent of the current node.
Remarks
If a node has just been created and not yet added to the tree, or if it has been removed from the tree, the parent is nullptr. For all other nodes, the value returned depends on the XmlNode::get_NodeType of the node. The following table describes the possible return values for the get_NodeType method.
| NodeType | Return Value of ParentNode |
|---|---|
| Attribute, Document, DocumentFragment, Entity, Notation | Returns nullptr; these nodes do not have parents. |
| CDATA | Returns the element or entity reference containing the CDATA section. |
| Comment | Returns the element, entity reference, document type, or document containing the comment. |
| DocumentType | Returns the document node. |
| Element | Returns the parent node of the element. If the element is the root node in the tree, the parent is the document node. |
| EntityReference | Returns the element, attribute, or entity reference containing the entity reference. |
| ProcessingInstruction | Returns the document, element, document type, or entity reference containing the processing instruction. |
| Text | Returns the parent element, attribute, or entity reference containing the text node. |
