Remarks

SharePoint Foundation identifies the XML document to overwrite in the content type by matching the URI of the XML document passed in the newDocument parameter.

If the XML document does not exist in the content type, SharePoint Foundation adds it to the content type.

You can use XMLDocument elements to store custom information in content type definitions. For more information, see Custom Information in Content Types.
