Character Encoding of XML Names and Conversion of XML Data Types
.NET Framework 1.1
The XmlConvert is a support class that encodes and decodes names, as well as converts data types. The XmlConvert class is functionally equivalent to the System.Convert class, but with a partiality to the XML standards. The type system is based on the XML Schema definition language (XSD) schema type and the values returned are always locale independent.
