XmlReader.XmlLang Property

Definition

When overridden in a derived class, gets the current xml:lang scope.

C#
public virtual string XmlLang { get; }
C#
public abstract string XmlLang { get; }

Property Value

The current xml:lang scope.

Exceptions

An XmlReader method was called before a previous asynchronous operation finished. In this case, InvalidOperationException is thrown with the message "An asynchronous operation is already in progress."

Examples

See XmlTextReader.XmlLang for an example of using this property.

Remarks

This property represents the xml:lang scope within which the current node resides. For example, here is an XML fragment with xml:lang set to US English in the root element:

XML
<root xml:lang="en-us">
<name>Fred</name>
</root>

When the reader is positioned on the name element, you can use this property to find that it is in the scope of a US English xml:lang attribute.
