XNamespace.Inequality 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 not equal.

Namespace:  System.Xml.Linq
Assembly:  System.Xml.Linq (in System.Xml.Linq.dll)

'Declaration
Public Shared Operator <> ( _
	left As XNamespace, _
	right As XNamespace _
) As Boolean

Parameters

left
Type: System.Xml.Linq.XNamespace
The first XNamespace to compare.
right
Type: System.Xml.Linq.XNamespace
The second XNamespace to compare.

Return Value

Type: System.Boolean
A Boolean that indicates whether left and right are not equal.

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 a comparison of a XNamespace to a string.


'add the following line to the the Imports section:
'Imports <xmlns="http://www.adventure-works.com">
Dim output As New StringBuilder
Dim aw As XNamespace = GetXmlNamespace()
output.Append(aw <> "http://www.adventure-works.com")
output.Append(Environment.NewLine)

OutputTextBlock.Text = output.ToString()
