XmlReader.LookupNamespace Method

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

When overridden in a derived class, resolves a namespace prefix in the current element's scope.

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

Syntax

'Declaration
Public MustOverride Function LookupNamespace ( _
    prefix As String _
) As String

public abstract string LookupNamespace(
    string prefix
)

Parameters

  • prefix
    Type: System.String
    The prefix whose namespace URI you want to resolve. To match the default namespace, pass an empty string.

Return Value

Type: System.String
The namespace URI to which the prefix maps or nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) if no matching prefix is found.

Remarks

In the following XML string, if the reader is positioned on the href attribute, the prefix a is resolved by calling reader.LookupNamespace("a"). The returned string is urn:456.

<root xmlns:a="urn:456">
  <item>
  <ref href="a:b"/>
  </item>
 </root>
