linq nested xml

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hi,

i'm using linq to load an xml structure into my classes. the xml consists of
the same node nested for multiple levels e.g.

<node id="node_id01" name="node 01">
<node id="node_id0101" name="node 01 01">
<node id="node_id010101" name="node 01 01 01">
<node id="node_id01010101" name="node 01 01 01 01">
<node id="node_id0101010101" name="node 01 01 01 01 01">
</node>
</node>
</node>
</node>
</node>

The class consits of the properties which map to the xml attributes and has
a children property and a parent property.

Using recursion i am able to constract the class tree from parent to
children, however i'm not able to link up the parent with the children.
the code i'm using is as follows:

private List<NodeClass> GetNodes(XElement xmlelement, bool enabledOnly, int
level )
{
level++;
var elementsQuery = from element in xmlelement.Elements("node")
select new NodeClass{
Id = element.Attribute("id").Value,
Name =
element.Attribute("name").Value,
Level = level,
//Parent = ?????
Children = GetNodes(element,
enabledOnly, level)
};
return elementsQuery.ToList();
}

the parent property is of type NodeClass and i'd like it to be the parent of
the child node or null when level is 0. any suggestments please?
