The XmlNamespaceMapping type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
XmlNamespaceMapping() | Initializes a new instance of the XmlNamespaceMapping class. |
|
|
XmlNamespaceMapping(String, Uri) | Initializes a new instance of the XmlNamespaceMapping class with the specified prefix and uniform resource identifier (URI). |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
|
Equals | Returns a value that indicates whether this XmlNamespaceMapping is equivalent to the specified instance. (Overrides Object.Equals(Object).) |
|
Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
|
|
GetHashCode | Returns the hash code for this XmlNamespaceMapping. (Overrides Object.GetHashCode().) |
|
|
GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
|
|
MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
|
|
ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
Equality | Performs equality comparison by value. |
|
|
Inequality | Performs inequality comparison by value. |

To declare a mapping between a URI and a prefix, create an XmlNamespaceMapping class and add it to an XmlNamespaceMappingCollection object that is used as the XmlNamespaceManager for a binding.
This example shows how to handle namespaces specified in your XML binding source.
If your XML data has the following XML namespace definition:
<rss version="2.0" xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">
You can use the XmlNamespaceMapping element to map the namespace to a Prefix, as in the following example. You can then use the Prefix to refer to the XML namespace. The ListBox in this example displays the title and dc:date of each item.
<StackPanel.Resources> <XmlNamespaceMappingCollection x:Key="mapping"> <XmlNamespaceMapping Uri="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" Prefix="dc" /> </XmlNamespaceMappingCollection> <XmlDataProvider Source="http://msdn.microsoft.com/subscriptions/rss.xml" XmlNamespaceManager="{StaticResource mapping}" XPath="rss/channel/item" x:Key="provider"/> <DataTemplate x:Key="dataTemplate"> <Border BorderThickness="1" BorderBrush="Gray"> <Grid Width="600" Height="50"> <Grid.RowDefinitions> <RowDefinition Height="25"/> <RowDefinition Height="25"/> </Grid.RowDefinitions> <TextBlock Grid.Row="0" Text="{Binding XPath=title}" /> <TextBlock Grid.Row="1" Text="{Binding XPath=dc:date}" /> </Grid> </Border> </DataTemplate> </StackPanel.Resources> <ListBox Width="600" Height="600" Background="Honeydew" ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource provider}}" ItemTemplate="{StaticResource dataTemplate}"/>
Note that the Prefix you specify does not have to match the one used in the XML source; if the prefix changes in the XML source your mapping still works.
In this particular example, the XML data comes from a web service, but the XmlNamespaceMapping element also works with inline XML or XML data in an embedded file.
