Parameters

scope
Type: System.Xml..::.XmlNamespaceScope
An XmlNamespaceScope value that specifies the type of namespace nodes to return.

Return Value

Type: System.Collections.Generic..::.IDictionary<(Of <(String, String>)>)
An IDictionary object that contains all the current in-scope namespaces. If the reader is not positioned on an element, an empty dictionary (no namespaces) is returned.
Remarks

NoteNote:

In the .NET Framework version 2.0 release, the recommended practice is to create XmlReader instances using the XmlReader..::.Create method. This allows you to take full advantage of the new features introduced in this release. For more information, see Creating XML Readers.

The dictionary consists of a collection of namespace names keyed by prefix. It can be used to enumerate the in-scope namespaces. The dictionary is a disconnected copy of the namespace list of the reader. It remains unchanged as the reader position, current in-scope namespace list, changes.

The following table describes how the XmlNamespaceScope enumeration value affects the whether or not the default and built-in namespaces are returned by GetNamespacesInScope.
