XNamespace.Equality Operator
[ This article is for Windows Phone 8 developers. If you’re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation. ]
Returns a value indicating whether two instances of XNamespace are equal.
Assembly: System.Xml.Linq (in System.Xml.Linq.dll)
Parameters
- left
- Type: System.Xml.Linq.XNamespace
The first XNamespace to compare.
- right
- Type: System.Xml.Linq.XNamespace
The second XNamespace to compare.
The operator overloads == and != are provided to enable comparisons between XNamespace and string (for example, element.Name.Namespace == "http://www.adventure-works.com"). The predefined reference equality operators in C# require one operand to be convertible to the type of the other through reference conversions only, and do not consider the implicit conversion from string to XNamespace.
The following example shows the comparison of an XNamespace and a string.
