Discovering Schema Information at Runtime

Summary

In this chapter, we tried to cover the important tidbits regarding schema planning and implementation that are relevant to developers. We hope we gave a good flavor of what is available and provided some otherwise hard-to-find guidance. We still recommend reading MSDN's documentation on schema extensions in addition to following the nuggets of wisdom we presented here. The documentation can provide a good starting point, as well as the history and methodology around all things schema related.
