[Visual Basic]
Public MustOverride ReadOnly Property XmlLang As String
[C#]
public abstract string XmlLang {get;}
[C++]
public: __property virtual String* get_XmlLang() = 0;
[JScript]
public abstract function get XmlLang() : String;

Property Value

The current xml:lang scope.

Remarks

This property represents the xml:lang scope within which the current node resides. For example, here is an XML fragment with xml:lang set to US English in the root element:

<root xml:lang="en-us">

<name>Fred</name>

</root>

When the reader is positioned on the name element, you can use this property to find that it is in the scope of a US English xml:lang attribute.

The string returned is also in NameTable.

Example

See XmlLang (in the XmlTextReader class) for an example using this property.
