System.Xml.XmlReader.NameTable Property

When overridden in a derived class, gets the System.Xml.XmlNameTable associated with this implementation.

Syntax

public abstract XmlNameTable NameTable { get; }

Value

The System.Xml.XmlNameTable used by the current instance.

Remarks

All node and attribute names returned from System.Xml.XmlReader are atomized using the NameTable. When the same name is returned multiple times (for example, Customer), then the same String object will be returned for that name. This makes it possible for you to write efficient code that does object comparisons on these strings instead of expensive string comparisons.

Requirements

Namespace: System.Xml
Assembly: System.Xml (in System.Xml.dll)
Assembly Versions: 1.0.5000.0, 2.0.0.0, 4.0.0.0
