XmlSerializationReader.DecodeName Property
Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.
This API supports the .NET Framework infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.
Gets or sets a value that determines whether XML strings are translated into valid Silverlight type names.
Namespace: System.Xml.Serialization
Assembly: System.Xml.Serialization (in System.Xml.Serialization.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Protected Property DecodeName As Boolean
protected bool DecodeName { get; set; }
Property Value
Type: System.Boolean
true if XML strings are decoded into valid Silverlight type names; otherwise, false.
Remarks
The EncodeName method writes valid XML from invalid sources. For example, the ColumnName property of the DataColumn class can contain spaces, which are invalid as XML. The DecodeName reads the encoded XML and restores it to the original value. However, the Read method of the XmlSchema class cannot read such encoded XML. In that case, set the EscapeName property to false to disable the encoding of the XML.
