XmlReader.NameTable Property

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

When overridden in a derived class, gets the XmlNameTable associated with this implementation.

Namespace:  System.Xml
Assembly:  System.Xml (in System.Xml.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public MustOverride ReadOnly Property NameTable As XmlNameTable
public abstract XmlNameTable NameTable { get; }

Property Value

Type: System.Xml.XmlNameTable
The XmlNameTable enabling you to get the atomized version of a string within the node.

Remarks

All node and attribute names returned from XmlReader are atomized using the NameTable. When the same name is returned multiple times (for example, Customer), then the same String object will be returned for that name. This makes it possible for you to write efficient code that does object comparisons on these strings instead of expensive string comparisons.
