XmlReaderSettings.DtdProcessing Property

Gets or sets a value that determines the processing of DTDs.

Namespace:  System.Xml
Assembly:  System.Xml (in System.Xml.dll)
public DtdProcessing DtdProcessing { get; set; }

Property Value

Type: System.Xml.DtdProcessing
One of the values of the DtdProcessing enumeration that determines the processing of DTDs.

The DtdProcessing enumeration contains the Prohibit, Ignore, and Parse enumerators. Prohibit is the default behavior. The DtdProcessing property replaces the ProhibitDTD property and adds the ability to ignore the DOCTYPE element. If you had set ProhibitDtd to its default value true set DtdProcessing to Prohibit. If you had set ProhibitDtd to false set DtdProcessing to Parse.

Important noteImportant

If the DtdProcessing property is set to DtdProcessing.Ignore, the XmlReader will not report the DTDs. This means that the DTD/DOCTYPE will be lost on output.
