When overridden in a derived class, gets the .NET Framework 2.0 type of the item.
public:
abstract property Type ^ ValueType { Type ^ get(); };public abstract Type ValueType { get; }member this.ValueType : TypePublic MustOverride ReadOnly Property ValueType As TypeProperty Value
The .NET Framework type of the item. The default value is String.
Remarks
When overridden in a derived class, the ValueType property gets the .NET Framework type of the typed value of the item.
For example, an element of type xs:int would have a ValueType of Int32 by default. However, the ValueType could be any one of the valid types that can be mapped to xs:int, such as Int16 or Double.
For more information about type support in the System.Xml namespace, see Type Support in the System.Xml Classes.
Notes to Implementers
All implementers must provide a ValueType property for every item, even if it is only String.
