XPathNavigator::GetNamespace Method (String^)

 

Returns the value of the namespace node corresponding to the specified local name.

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

public:
virtual String^ GetNamespace(
	String^ name
)

Parameters

name
Type: System::String^

The local name of the namespace node.

Return Value

Type: System::String^

A String that contains the value of the namespace node; String::Empty if a matching namespace node is not found, or if the XPathNavigator is not positioned on an element node.

Namespaces xml and xmlns always return a value. If String::Empty is specified as the name parameter, the GetNamespace method returns the default xmlns namespace.

For a definition of namespace nodes, see section 5.4 of the W3C XML Path Language (XPath) recommendation located at http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath#data-model.

This method does not affect the state of the XPathNavigator.
