XMl parsing

[millseyfletchers]

If I try to cast to XML inside a Pode Route, I get nothing back:

     $xmlString="<root>
    <section>
        <node id='1'>AAA</node>
        <node id='2'>BBB</node>
        <node id='3'>CCC</node>
    </section>
</root>"

    $content = [xml]$xmlString
    write-host "~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"
    write-host $content

.. returns nothing past the marker line to the host window?

Hi, this code would also produce the same result in plain Powershell, because $content is an XML-Object, try to change it to a Property which produces output as a String like: write-host $content.OuterXml
