The System.Xml.XLinq Namespace

Somewhat surprisingly, the core LINQ to XML assembly (System.Xml.Linq.dll) defines a very small

number of types in three distinct namespaces, specifically System.Xml.Linq, System.Xml.Schema,

and System.Xml.XPath (see Figure 24-9).

The core namespace, System.Xml.Linq, contains a very manageable set of types that represents

various aspects of an XML document (its elements and their attributes, XML namespaces, XML

comments, and processing instructions, etc.). Table 24-3 documents the core members of

System.Xml.Linq.
