XmlTextReader.XmlLang Property
Gets the current xml:lang scope.
Namespace: System.Xml
Assembly: System.Xml (in System.Xml.dll)

In the .NET Framework 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. |
This property represents the xml:lang scope within which the current node resides. For example, here is an XML fragment with xml:lang set to US English in the root element:
<root xml:lang="en-us">
<name>Fred</name>
</root>
When the reader is positioned on the name element, you can use this property to find that it is in the scope of a US English xml:lang attribute.
The following example displays the xml:lang value for each of the nodes.
using System; using System.IO; using System.Xml; public class Sample{ public static void Main(){ //Create the XML fragment to be parsed. string xmlFrag = "<book xml:lang='en-US'> " + " <title xml:lang='en-GB'>Colour Analysis</title>" + " <title>Color Analysis</title>" + "</book>"; //Create the XmlNamespaceManager. NameTable nt = new NameTable(); XmlNamespaceManager nsmgr = new XmlNamespaceManager(nt); //Create the XmlParserContext. XmlParserContext context = new XmlParserContext(null, nsmgr, null, XmlSpace.None); //Create the reader. XmlTextReader reader = new XmlTextReader(xmlFrag, XmlNodeType.Element, context); reader.WhitespaceHandling = WhitespaceHandling.None; //Parse the XML and display each of the nodes, including the xml:lang setting. while (reader.Read()){ switch (reader.NodeType){ case XmlNodeType.Element: Console.WriteLine("{0}: <{1}>", reader.XmlLang, reader.Name); break; case XmlNodeType.Text: Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1}", reader.XmlLang, reader.Value); break; case XmlNodeType.EndElement: Console.WriteLine("{0}: </{1}>", reader.XmlLang, reader.Name); break; } } //Close the reader. reader.Close(); } }
