Property Value

An XmlNameTable.

Remarks

The XmlNameTable stores atomized strings of any LocalName, NamespaceURI, and Prefix used by XPathNavigator. This means that when the same name is returned multiple times (like "book") then the same String object is returned for that name. This makes it possible to write efficient code that does object comparisons on these strings instead of expensive string comparisons.

For more information on atomized strings, see XmlNameTable.

Requirements
