XmlTextReader.Namespaces Property

Definition

Gets or sets a value indicating whether to do namespace support.

public bool Namespaces { get; set; }

Property Value

true to do namespace support; otherwise, false. The default is true.

Exceptions

Setting this property after a read operation has occurred (ReadState is not ReadState.Initial).

Remarks

Note

Starting with the .NET Framework 2.0, we recommend that you create XmlReader instances by using the XmlReader.Create method to take advantage of new functionality.

This property determines whether the reader supports the W3C Namespaces in XML recommendation.

The Namespaces property cannot be set after a read operation has occurred.
