Adds a new object to the XsltArgumentList and associates it with the namespace URI.

public:
 void AddExtensionObject(System::String ^ namespaceUri, System::Object ^ extension);

public void AddExtensionObject (string namespaceUri, object extension);

member this.AddExtensionObject : string * obj -> unit

Public Sub AddExtensionObject (namespaceUri As String, extension As Object)

Parameters

namespaceUri: String

The namespace URI to associate with the object. To use the default namespace, specify an empty string.

extension: Object

The object to add to the list.

Exceptions

ArgumentException

The namespaceUri is either null or http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform

The namespaceUri already has an extension object associated with it.

SecurityException

The caller does not have sufficient permissions to call this method.

Examples

In the following example, the style sheet uses an XSLT extension object to convert the book price.

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Xml;
using System.Xml.XPath;
using System.Xml.Xsl;

public class Sample {

   public static void Main() {

    // Create the XslCompiledTransform and load the stylesheet.
    XslCompiledTransform xslt = new XslCompiledTransform();
    xslt.Load("prices.xsl");

    // Create an XsltArgumentList.
    XsltArgumentList xslArg = new XsltArgumentList();

    // Add an object to calculate the new book price.
    BookPrice obj = new BookPrice();
    xslArg.AddExtensionObject("urn:price-conv", obj);

    using (XmlWriter w = XmlWriter.Create("output.xml"))
    {
        // Transform the file.
        xslt.Transform("books.xml", xslArg, w);
    }
  }

  // Convert the book price to a new price using the conversion factor.
  public class BookPrice{

    private decimal newprice = 0;
        
    public decimal NewPriceFunc(decimal price, decimal conv){
       decimal tmp = price*conv;
       newprice = decimal.Round(tmp, 2);
       return newprice;
    }
  }
}

        Private newprice As Decimal = 0
                
        Public Function NewPriceFunc(ByVal price As Decimal, ByVal conv As Decimal) As Decimal 
            Dim tmp As Decimal = price * conv
            newprice = Decimal.Round(tmp, 2)
            Return newprice        
        End Function 'NewPriceFunc

    End Class

End Class
