Attributes used to annotate classes in the .NET Framework have nothing to do with XML attributes. The C# specification has a description of the kind of attributes mentioned below at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/csspec/html/vclrfcsharpspec_17.asp ________________________________ From: Dan Mabbutt [mailto:Seigfried@m...] Sent: Sat 10/11/2003 8:48 AM To: xml-dev@l... Subject: XML Attributes versus .NET Attributes To the list: I'm not in the same 'guru class' as the members of this list, but I'm hoping that some members will help confirm a question I have in Microsoft .NET. It seems to me that 'attributes' in .NET are not always valid XML 'attributes'. As an example, consider this quote taken from a MSDN article (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnadvnet/h tml/vbnet04082003.asp). --------------------------- An extender provider uses attributes to tell Visual Studio .NET what properties it is providing to supported controls. To include these attributes, place the following code immediately above the line that says Public Class MSDNTextboxValidator: <ProvideProperty("DataType", GetType(Control)), _ ProvideProperty("DisplayName", GetType(Control)), _ ProvideProperty("MinValue", GetType(Control)), _ ProvideProperty("MaxValue", GetType(Control)), _ ProvideProperty("Required", GetType(Control)), _ ProvideProperty("RegularExpression", GetType(Control))> --------------------------- Can someone from the list confirm or explain this for me? ----------------------------------------------------------------- The xml-dev list is sponsored by XML.org <http://www.xml.org>, an initiative of OASIS <http://www.oasis-open.org> The list archives are at http://lists.xml.org/archives/xml-dev/ To subscribe or unsubscribe from this list use the subscription manager: <http://lists.xml.org/ob/adm.pl>
