- localName
- String
The local name of the attribute to validate.
- namespaceUri
- String
The namespace URI of the attribute to validate.
- attributeValue
- XmlValueGetter
An XmlValueGetterdelegate used to pass the attribute's value as a Common Language Runtime (CLR) type compatible with the XML Schema Definition Language (XSD) type of the attribute.
- schemaInfo
- XmlSchemaInfo
An XmlSchemaInfo object whose properties are set on successful validation of the attribute. This parameter and can be null.
Returns
The validated attribute's value.
Exceptions
The attribute is not valid in the current element context.
The ValidateAttribute method was not called in the correct sequence. For example, calling ValidateAttribute after calling ValidateEndOfAttributes(XmlSchemaInfo).
One or more of the parameters specified are null.
Examples
The following example validates the contosoBooks.xml file against the contosoBooks.xsd schema. The example uses the XmlSerializer class to deserialize the contosoBooks.xml file and pass the value of the nodes to the methods of the XmlSchemaValidator class.

Remarks
The following are important notes to consider when using the ValidateAttribute method.
The GetUnspecifiedDefaultAttributes method must be called after validating all the attributes for the current element with the ValidateAttribute method.
If an XmlSchemaAttribute object was passed to the Initialize method, the ValidateAttribute method validates the attribute against the XmlSchemaAttribute object.
If the attribute is successfully validated in the current element context, the XmlSchemaInfo object's (if specified) SchemaAttribute, SchemaType, MemberType, and Validity properties are set with the results of the validation.

- String
The namespace URI of the attribute to validate.
- attributeValue
- String
The value of the attribute to validate.
- schemaInfo
- XmlSchemaInfo
An XmlSchemaInfo object whose properties are set on successful validation of the attribute. This parameter can be null.
Returns
The validated attribute's value.
Exceptions
The attribute is not valid in the current element context.
The ValidateAttribute method was not called in the correct sequence. For example, calling ValidateAttribute after calling ValidateEndOfAttributes(XmlSchemaInfo).

Remarks
The following are important notes to consider when using the ValidateAttribute method.
The GetUnspecifiedDefaultAttributes method must be called after validating all the attributes for the current element with the ValidateAttribute method.
If an XmlSchemaAttribute object was passed to the Initialize method, the ValidateAttribute method validates the attribute against the XmlSchemaAttribute object.
If the attribute is successfully validated in the current element context, the XmlSchemaInfo object's (if specified) SchemaAttribute, SchemaType, MemberType, and Validity properties are set with the results of the validation.
