LINQ to XML : A query body must end with a select clause or a group clause

Question

Can someone guide me on to repairing the error on this query :

       var objApps = from item in xDoc.Descendants(\"VHost\") 
                          where         


        

Answer 1

I like the procedural way of linq which can be more linear in its approach; I believe you want

var result =   xDoc.Descendants("VHost")
                   .Descendants("ConnectionsTotal")
                   .Select(ele => ele.Value )
                   .Select( value => new clsApplication
                           {
                               ConnectionsTotal = value
                           })
                         ;

  var XDoc = XDocument.Parse(xml);

  XDoc.Descendants("VHost")
      .Descendants("ConnectionsTotal")
      .Select (ele => ele.Value )
      .Dump();
