Remarks

The {x:Reference} markup extension supports a positional usage (there is only one parameter) and a named argument usage (with the named argument name).

The {x:Reference} markup extension is used to reference another named object in the object graph. Objects in this scenario are initially named by , although specific implementations often define a different RuntimeNamePropertyAttribute. For more information, see x:Reference Markup Extension.

For more information about markup extensions, see Type Converters and Markup Extensions for XAML.

The System.Xaml assembly uses XmlnsDefinitionAttribute to map all types in the assembly to the XAML namespace for the XAML language (http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml). Typically you declare a prefix for http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml in a root element mapping and use the prefix x.
