XmlNodeEventArgs Class

Definition

Provides data for the UnknownNode event.

public ref class XmlNodeEventArgs : EventArgs
public class XmlNodeEventArgs : EventArgs
type XmlNodeEventArgs = class
    inherit EventArgs
Public Class XmlNodeEventArgs
Inherits EventArgs
Inheritance
XmlNodeEventArgs

Examples

The following example uses the UnknownNode event of the XmlSerializer to print various properties of an unknown XML node that is encountered when calling the XmlSerializer class's Deserialize method.

Remarks

For more information about how to handle events, see Handling and Raising Events.

The UnknownNode event can occur only when you call the Deserialize method.
