Type: System.Xml.Schema.XmlSchemaNotation

System.Xml.Schema.XmlSchemaNotation Class

Assembly: System.Xml.dll
Namespace: System.Xml.Schema

Summary: Class represents a notation. An XML Schema definition language (XSD) notation declaration is a reconstruction of XML 1.0 NOTATION declarations. The purpose of notations is to describe the format of non-XML data within an XML document. Represents the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) notation element.

C# Syntax:


        public class XmlSchemaNotation : XmlSchemaAnnotated

Example

The following example shows the use of the XmlSchemaNotation class.

using System;
using System.Xml;  
using System.Xml.Schema;

class XMLSchemaExamples {
	public static void Main() {
 
		XmlSchema schema = new XmlSchema();
		
		// <xs:notation name="jpeg" public="image/jpeg" system="viewer.exe" />
		XmlSchemaNotation notation = new XmlSchemaNotation();
		notation.Name = "jpeg";
		notation.Public = "image/jpeg";
		notation.System = "viewer.exe";

		schema.Items.Add(notation);
		
        schema.Compile(new ValidationEventHandler(ValidationCallbackOne));
 	XmlNamespaceManager nsmgr = new XmlNamespaceManager(new NameTable());
        nsmgr.AddNamespace("xs", "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema");
        schema.Write(Console.Out, nsmgr);
	}

    public static void ValidationCallbackOne(object sender, ValidationEventArgs args) {
        Console.WriteLine(args.Message);
    }
}

The following XML file is generated for the preceding code example.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="IBM437"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
    <xs:notation name="jpeg" public="image/jpeg" system="viewer.exe" />
</xs:schema>
