Combines an XNamespace object with a local name to create an XName.
public:
static System::Xml::Linq::XName ^ operator +(System::Xml::Linq::XNamespace ^ ns, System::String ^ localName);
public static System.Xml.Linq.XName operator + (System.Xml.Linq.XNamespace ns, string localName);
static member ( + ) : System.Xml.Linq.XNamespace * string -> System.Xml.Linq.XName
Public Shared Operator + (ns As XNamespace, localName As String) As XName
Parameters
- ns
- XNamespace
An XNamespace that contains the namespace.
Returns
The new XName constructed from the namespace and local name.
Examples
The following example shows the use of the +
operator to create an XName from an XNamespace and a local name.
XNamespace aw = "http://www.adventure-works.com";
XElement root = new XElement(aw + "Root",
new XElement(aw + "Child")
);
Console.WriteLine(root);
Dim aw As XNamespace = "http://www.adventure-works.com"
Dim root As XElement = New XElement(aw + "Root", _
New XElement(aw + "Child") _
)
Console.WriteLine(root)
In Visual Basic, this is the preferred idiom:
Imports <xmlns="http://www.adventure-works.com">
Module Module1
Sub Main()
Dim aw As XNamespace = GetXmlNamespace()
Dim root As XElement = _
<Root>
<Child/>
</Root>
Console.WriteLine(root)
End Sub
End Module
This example produces the following output:
<Root xmlns="http://www.adventure-works.com">
<Child />
</Root>
Remarks
This operator enables the common idiom of combining a namespace and a local name in the construction of an element or attribute. This idiom provides some of the benefits of having namespace prefixes, in that you can refer to a namespace using a variable that is short. This eliminates syntactic noise in the code that creates XML trees.
