Examples
The following code example demonstrates how to associate an instance of the XsdSchemaFileEditor class with a property that is contained within a custom control. When the control property is edited on the design surface, the XsdSchemaFileEditor class provides the user interface to select and edit an XML schema definition file name for the property value.

Remarks
An XsdSchemaFileEditor object is used at design time to select and edit a URL for an XML schema definition file (.xsd), and to assign the URL to a control property.
Use the EditorAttribute attribute to associate the XsdSchemaFileEditor with a property. When the associated property is edited on the design surface, the designer host calls the EditValue method. The EditValue method uses the BuildUrl method, which in turn displays a user interface for selecting the URL, and then returns the URL that is selected by the user. The GetEditStyle method indicates the display style of the user interface.
Derive a class from the XsdSchemaFileEditor to define a custom editor for an XML schema URL property. For example, a derived class can override the EditValue method, and then call the BuildUrl method with a custom Filter or Caption value.
Constructors
