.NET Framework Class Library
XmlSchemaObject Class
Represents the root class for the Xml schema object model hierarchy and serves as a base class for classes such as the XmlSchema class.
Assembly: System.Xml (in System.Xml.dll)
Syntax
Visual Basic (Declaration)
<PermissionSetAttribute(SecurityAction.InheritanceDemand, Name := "FullTrust")> _ Public MustInherit Class XmlSchemaObject
Visual Basic (Usage)
Dim instance As XmlSchemaObject
C#
[PermissionSetAttribute(SecurityAction.InheritanceDemand, Name = "FullTrust")] public abstract class XmlSchemaObject
Visual C++
[PermissionSetAttribute(SecurityAction::InheritanceDemand, Name = L"FullTrust")] public ref class XmlSchemaObject abstract
JScript
public abstract class XmlSchemaObject
Examples
The following example displays each schema object.
