System.Xaml Namespace

Provides types that relate to XAML readers and XAML writers. This includes the default implementations of .NET XAML Services and its XAML readers and XAML writers. Also contains types relevant to the XAML type system and other support types related to XAML and .NET XAML Services concepts.

Classes

AmbientPropertyValue

Reports information about an ambient property, as part of an IAmbientProvider implementation.

AttachableMemberIdentifier

Provides a XAML type system identifier representation for attachable members. The identifier structure parallels the declaringType.memberName string form for attachable member usage.

AttachablePropertyServices

Provides static helper methods that obtain values and accessor method information from an attachable property and that work with an attached property store.

NamespaceDeclaration

Declares the identifier and the prefix of a XAML namespace by storing these string values as separate properties.

XamlBackgroundReader

Implements a double-buffered XamlReader that can split reading and writing to different threads.

XamlDeferringLoader

Represents a XAML reader behavior that loads and returns deferred content.

XamlDirective

Provides the XAML type system identifier for a member if the member is also a XAML directive. XAML readers and XAML writers use the XamlDirective identifier during processing of member nodes. The identifier is used when the XAML reader is positioned on a StartMember and IsDirective is true.

XamlDuplicateMemberException

The exception that is thrown when a XAML writer attempts to write a value for a duplicate member into the same object node.

XamlException

The exception that is thrown for a general XAML reader or XAML writer exception.

XamlInternalException

The exception that is thrown for internal inconsistencies that occur during XAML reading and XAML writing.

XamlLanguage

Defines constants that provide strings or objects that are useful for XAML markup or for programming with XAML types. These strings or objects are relevant to XAML language concepts, to the implementation of XAML language concepts in .NET XAML Services, or to both.

XamlMember

Provides the XAML type system identifier for members of XAML types. The identifier is used by XAML readers and XAML writers during processing of member nodes (when the XAML reader is positioned on a StartMember) and also for general XAML type system logic.

XamlNodeList

Provides a list of XAML nodes, which can be used for scenarios such as writing XAML nodes in a deferred manner.

XamlNodeQueue

Provides a buffer for writing nodes and reading them again.

XamlObjectEventArgs

Provides data for callbacks that can be inserted in the sequence for object initialization and property setting. This influences the object graph that is produced by XamlObjectWriter.

XamlObjectReader

Provides a XamlReader implementation that reads object graphs and generates a XAML node stream.

XamlObjectReaderException

The exception that is thrown by several XamlObjectReader internal helper APIs.

XamlObjectReaderSettings

Specifies processing rules or option settings for a XamlObjectReader.

XamlObjectWriter

Creates an object graph from a source XAML node stream.

XamlObjectWriterException

The exception that is thrown when a XAML writer (such as the XamlObjectWriter class) encounters an error while attempting to produce object graphs from a XAML node stream.

XamlObjectWriterSettings

Provides specific XAML writer settings for XamlObjectWriter.

XamlParseException

The exception that is thrown when a XAML reader cannot process elements of the XAML reader source into a XAML node stream.

XamlReader

Provides base definitions for classes that consume XAML input and produce XAML node streams.

XamlReaderSettings

Specifies processing rules or option settings for a XamlReader implementation.

XamlSchemaContext

Defines a reusable context for interpreting or mapping XAML types, and the types in the assemblies that underlie them.

XamlSchemaContextSettings

Provides optional settings for a XamlSchemaContext.

XamlSchemaException

The exception that is thrown when a binding system or another schema representation system for XAML reports an exception to the schema context.

XamlServices

Provides higher-level services (static methods) for the common XAML tasks of reading XAML and writing an object graph; or reading an object graph and writing XAML file output for serialization purposes.

XamlType

Reports information about XAML types as part of the overall XAML system that is implemented in .NET XAML Services.

XamlWriter

Provides default implementation and base class definitions for a XAML writer. This is not a working default XAML writer; you must either derive from XamlWriter and implement its abstract members, or use an existing XamlWriter derived class.

XamlWriterSettings

Provides initialization settings for a XamlWriter implementation.

XamlXmlReader

Processes XAML markup from XML files by using an XmlReader intermediary, and produces a XAML node stream.

XamlXmlReaderSettings

Specifies processing rules or option settings for the XamlXmlReader XAML reader implementation.

XamlXmlWriter

Uses a TextWriter or XmlWriter support class to write a XAML node stream to a text or markup serialized form.

XamlXmlWriterException

The exception that is thrown by certain XamlXmlWriter APIs.

XamlXmlWriterSettings

Provides initialization settings for the XamlXmlWriter XAML writer implementation.

Interfaces

IAmbientProvider

Represents a service that can return information items about ambient properties or ambient types to type converters and markup extensions.

IAttachedPropertyStore

Represents an attachable member store for an object where attachable members are set. This attachable member store can then be referenced with AttachablePropertyServices.

IDestinationTypeProvider

Represents a service that can return a CLR type system identifier for the destination type. The destination type is relevant when the destination type for a property-setting operation is indirectly reported by reflection or other mechanisms.

INamespacePrefixLookup

Represents a service that can return the recommended prefix for a XAML namespace mapping to consumers. Consumers might include design environments or serializers.

IRootObjectProvider

Describes a service that can return the root object of markup being parsed.

IXamlIndexingReader

Provides a service that represents indexed node control for a simple implementation of a node-based XAML reader.

IXamlLineInfo

Describes a service for reporting text line information in XAML reader implementations.

IXamlLineInfoConsumer

Describes a service where a XAML writer can use reported line information and then include the information in the output.

IXamlNameProvider

Provides a service that is used during save and write operations to input an object and return a XAML name.

IXamlNameResolver

Describes a service that can return objects that are specified by XAML name, or alternatively, returns a token that defers name resolution. The service can also return an enumerable set of all named objects that are in the XAML namescope.

IXamlNamespaceResolver

Describes a service that can return a XAML namespace that is based on its prefix as it is mapped in XAML markup.

IXamlObjectWriterFactory

Represents a service that generates a XamlObjectWriter that is based on the current internal parser context.

IXamlSchemaContextProvider

Represents a service that provides XAML schema context information to type converters and markup extensions.

Enums

XamlNodeType

Describes the type of the node that is currently being processed by a XAML reader.
