DtdProcessing Enumeration

Specifies the options for processing DTDs. The DtdProcessing enumeration is used by XmlReaderSettings.

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

Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Enumeration DtdProcessing
C#
public enum DtdProcessing
Members

Member name Description
Supported by Silverlight for Windows Phone Supported by Xbox 360 Prohibit Specifies that when a DTD is encountered, an XmlException is thrown with a message that states that DTDs are prohibited. This is the default behavior.
Supported by Silverlight for Windows Phone Supported by Xbox 360 Ignore Causes the DOCTYPE element to be ignored. No DTD processing occurs. Warning: The DTD/DOCTYPE will be lost on output.
Supported by Silverlight for Windows Phone Supported by Xbox 360 Parse Is used for parsing DTDs.
Remarks

This enumeration is set on the DtdProcessing property. In .NET Framework for Silverlight, the DtdProcessing property replaces the ProhibitDTD property in .NET Framework and adds the ability to ignore the DOCTYPE element.

Examples

The following example preloads the DTDs and entities defined in XHTML 1.0 by setting Xhtml10 on the XmlPreloadedResolver. In this example, the XHTMLPage.html file is a part of the application's XAP package; therefore, we have to pass a fallback resolver to the constructor of the XmlPreloadedResolver.

Visual Basic

Dim settings As XmlReaderSettings = New XmlReaderSettings()
settings.XmlResolver = New XmlPreloadedResolver(New XmlXapResolver(), XmlKnownDtds.Xhtml10)
Using reader As XmlReader = XmlReader.Create("HTMLPage.html", settings)
    Dim document As XDocument = XDocument.Load(reader)
    OutputTextBlock.Text = document.ToString()
End Using


C#


XmlReaderSettings settings = new XmlReaderSettings();
settings.DtdProcessing = DtdProcessing.Parse;
settings.XmlResolver =
    new XmlPreloadedResolver(new XmlXapResolver(),
        XmlKnownDtds.Xhtml10);

using (XmlReader reader = XmlReader.Create("HTMLPage.html", settings))
{
XDocument document = XDocument.Load(reader);
OutputTextBlock.Text = document.ToString();
}
