            namespace CategoriesSample
            {

                {
                    static void Main(string[] args)
                    {
                        try
                        {
                            SchemaContext schemaContext = new SchemaContext();
                            Schema schema = schemaContext.Schema;
            
                            CategoryCollection categories = schema.AllCategories;
                            foreach (Category category in categories)
                            {
                                Console.WriteLine(category.Name);
                            }
                        }
                        catch (Exception ex)
                        {
                            Console.WriteLine(ex.ToString());
                        }
                    }
                }
