A LINQ with XML question

How can I use LINQ to retrieve a specific value of Supported attribute nased on the condition URL="localhoist"? Thank you.

<SomeSett开发者_Python百科ing>
  <Setting URL="abc.com" Supported="sb.new,mgrsma" />
  <Setting URL="localhost" Supported="GG,LLmgrsma,FF1,FF3" />
  <Setting URL="def.zxy.com" Supported="xyz" />
</SomeSetting>

Like this:

var localhost = doc.Descendants("Setting")
                   .Where(x => (string) x.Attribute("URL") == "localhost")
                   .Select(x => (string) x.Attribute("Supported"))
                   .FirstOrDefault();

One line at a time:

• First select all the "Setting" elements; you could also do this using someSetting.Elements("Setting") where someSetting is the SomeSetting element
• Add a where clause to filter out elements which don't have a URL of localhost. I'm using the explicit string conversion rather than the Value property so that it copes with elements without the URL attribute; in that case the conversion will return null
• Select the Supported attribute value - again, this will return null if a URL=localhost element has no Supported attribute.
• Select the first result, or null if there were no results. If you may have multiple elements and want to examine all of them, just remove this call.
