The XsltContext type exposes the following members.

Constructors
  Name Description
Protected method XsltContext() Initializes a new instance of the XsltContext class.
Protected method XsltContext(NameTable) Initializes a new instance of the XsltContext class with the specified NameTable.

Properties
  Name Description
Public property DefaultNamespace Gets the namespace URI for the default namespace. (Inherited from XmlNamespaceManager.)
Public property NameTable Gets the XmlNameTable associated with this object. (Inherited from XmlNamespaceManager.)
Public property Whitespace When overridden in a derived class, gets a value indicating whether to include white space nodes in the output.
Top
Methods
  Name Description
Public method AddNamespace Adds the given namespace to the collection. (Inherited from XmlNamespaceManager.)
Public method CompareDocument When overridden in a derived class, compares the base Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs) of two documents based upon the order the documents were loaded by the XSLT processor (that is, the XslTransform class).
Public method Equals(Object) Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected method Finalize Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetEnumerator Returns an enumerator to use to iterate through the namespaces in the XmlNamespaceManager. (Inherited from XmlNamespaceManager.)
Public method GetHashCode Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetNamespacesInScope Gets a collection of namespace names keyed by prefix which can be used to enumerate the namespaces currently in scope. (Inherited from XmlNamespaceManager.)
Public method GetType Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method HasNamespace Gets a value indicating whether the supplied prefix has a namespace defined for the current pushed scope. (Inherited from XmlNamespaceManager.)
Public method LookupNamespace Gets the namespace URI for the specified prefix. (Inherited from XmlNamespaceManager.)
Public method LookupPrefix Finds the prefix declared for the given namespace URI. (Inherited from XmlNamespaceManager.)
Protected method MemberwiseClone Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method PopScope Pops a namespace scope off the stack. (Inherited from XmlNamespaceManager.)
Public method PreserveWhitespace When overridden in a derived class, evaluates whether to preserve white space nodes or strip them for the given context.
Public method PushScope Pushes a namespace scope onto the stack. (Inherited from XmlNamespaceManager.)
Public method RemoveNamespace Removes the given namespace for the given prefix. (Inherited from XmlNamespaceManager.)
Public method ResolveFunction When overridden in a derived class, resolves a function reference and returns an IXsltContextFunction representing the function. The IXsltContextFunction is used at execution time to get the return value of the function.
Public method ResolveVariable When overridden in a derived class, resolves a variable reference and returns an IXsltContextVariable representing the variable.
Public method ToString Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
