Imports System.Xml

public class Sample 

  public shared sub Main()

    'Create the validating reader.
    Dim txtreader as XmlTextReader = new XmlTextReader("attrs.xml")
    Dim reader as XmlValidatingReader = new XmlValidatingReader(txtreader)

    'Read the ISBN attribute.
    reader.MoveToContent()
    Dim isbn as string = reader.GetAttribute("ISBN")
    Console.WriteLine("The ISBN value: " + isbn)

    'Close the reader.
    reader.Close()

  End sub

Remarks

Note

This method does not move the reader.

If the reader is positioned on a DocumentType node, this method can be used to get the PUBLIC and SYSTEM literals, for example, reader.GetAttribute("PUBLIC")

Remarks

Note

The XmlValidatingReader class is obsolete in .NET Framework 2.0. You can create a validating XmlReader instance by using the XmlReaderSettings class and the Create method. For more information, see the Remarks section of the XmlReader reference page.

The following XML contains an attribute in a specific namespace:

<test xmlns:dt="urn:datatypes" dt:type="int"/>  

You can look up the dt:type attribute by using one argument (prefix and local name) or two arguments (local name and namespace URI):

String dt = reader.GetAttribute("dt:type");  
String dt2 = reader.GetAttribute("type","urn:datatypes");  

To look up the xmlns:dt attribute, use one of the following arguments:

String dt3 = reader.GetAttribute("xmlns:dt");  
String dt4 = reader.GetAttribute("dt",http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/);  

You can also get this information by using the Prefix property.
