class System.Xml.XPath.XPathExpression
Assembly: System.Xml.ReaderWriter
Inheritance: object → XPathExpression
Provides a typed class that represents a compiled XPath expression.
Properties
public
string
Expression
When overridden in a derived class, gets a <see langword="string" /> representation of the <see cref="T:System.Xml.XPath.XPathExpression" /> .
public
XPathResultType
ReturnType
When overridden in a derived class, gets the result type of the XPath expression.
Methods
public
void
AddSort(object expr,
Collections.IComparer comparer)
When overridden in a derived class, sorts the nodes selected by the XPath expression according to the specified <see cref="T:System.Collections.IComparer" /> object.
expr
An object representing the sort key. This can be the <see langword="string" /> value of the node or an <see cref="T:System.Xml.XPath.XPathExpression" /> object with a compiled XPath expression.
comparer
An <see cref="T:System.Collections.IComparer" /> object that provides the specific data type comparisons for comparing two objects for equivalence.
public
void
AddSort(object expr,
XmlSortOrder order,
XmlCaseOrder caseOrder,
string lang,
XmlDataType dataType)
When overridden in a derived class, sorts the nodes selected by the XPath expression according to the supplied parameters.
expr
An object representing the sort key. This can be the <see langword="string" /> value of the node or an <see cref="T:System.Xml.XPath.XPathExpression" /> object with a compiled XPath expression.
order
An <see cref="T:System.Xml.XPath.XmlSortOrder" /> value indicating the sort order.
caseOrder
An <see cref="T:System.Xml.XPath.XmlCaseOrder" /> value indicating how to sort uppercase and lowercase letters.
lang
The language to use for comparison. Uses the <see cref="T:System.Globalization.CultureInfo" /> class that can be passed to the <see cref="Overload:System.String.Compare" /> method for the language types, for example, "us-en" for U.S. English. If an empty string is specified, the system environment is used to determine the <see cref="T:System.Globalization.CultureInfo" /> .
dataType
An <see cref="T:System.Xml.XPath.XmlDataType" /> value indicating the sort order for the data type.
public
XPathExpression
Clone()
When overridden in a derived class, returns a clone of this <see cref="T:System.Xml.XPath.XPathExpression" /> .
Returns A new <see cref="T:System.Xml.XPath.XPathExpression" /> object.
public static
XPathExpression
Compile(string xpath)
Compiles the XPath expression specified and returns an <see cref="T:System.Xml.XPath.XPathExpression" /> object representing the XPath expression.
Returns An <see cref="T:System.Xml.XPath.XPathExpression" /> object.
xpath
An XPath expression.
public static
XPathExpression
Compile(string xpath,
IXmlNamespaceResolver? nsResolver)
Compiles the specified XPath expression, with the <see cref="T:System.Xml.IXmlNamespaceResolver" /> object specified for namespace resolution, and returns an <see cref="T:System.Xml.XPath.XPathExpression" /> object that represents the XPath expression.
Returns An <see cref="T:System.Xml.XPath.XPathExpression" /> object.
xpath
An XPath expression.
nsResolver
An object that implements the <see cref="T:System.Xml.IXmlNamespaceResolver" /> interface for namespace resolution.
public
void
SetContext(IXmlNamespaceResolver nsResolver)
When overridden in a derived class, specifies the <see cref="T:System.Xml.IXmlNamespaceResolver" /> object to use for namespace resolution.
nsResolver
An object that implements the <see cref="T:System.Xml.IXmlNamespaceResolver" /> interface to use for namespace resolution.
public
void
SetContext(XmlNamespaceManager nsManager)
When overridden in a derived class, specifies the <see cref="T:System.Xml.XmlNamespaceManager" /> object to use for namespace resolution.
nsManager
An <see cref="T:System.Xml.XmlNamespaceManager" /> object to use for namespace resolution.
