Parameters

defaultNamespaceUriString

The default namespace URI string. When this parameter is not a null reference, the formatted string will not explicitly include the namespace specifier with the target name if it is equal to the default namespace.

The value represents an OPC UA namespace URI string. Any string can be passed to this parameter (i.e. will not cause System.ArgumentException), but not all values make sense and will work when an operation using them is attempted.

The value of this parameter can be null (Nothing in Visual Basic).
