Timer Class

Question

I was wondering if there is a syntax for puting a timer on a local variable that is using XmlTextReader instead of generating a whole new method for the XmlTextReader? What I want to do is read an xml file and display the findings but put restrictions on how long the XmlTextReader can read that file.

That looks pretty good to me Marc :) Although it only saves a line there is a way to create and start the Stopwatch at the same time: Stopwatch sw = Stopwatch.StartNew(); Otherwise by altering the while condition as you've done you could just use standard XmlTextReader code such as this example on MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.xml.xmltextreader.read(v=vs.110).aspx

would this cause any unforseen issues? is there a better way to refractor it? stopwatch sw = new Stopwatch(); sw.Start(); while(reader.Read() && sw.Elaped { //read xml file }
