## Remarks  
 This interface represents the service that returns the prefix for a particular XAML namespace. A technology reports a preferred prefix for XAML namespace mapping as part of assembly-level information. This service retrieves that information.  
  
 The .NET Framework XAML Services implementation provides <xref:System.Windows.Markup.XmlnsPrefixAttribute> as a mechanism for applying preferred prefix information at the assembly level. Existing service providers that provide the <xref:System.Xaml.INamespacePrefixLookup> service can read information from that attribute if information is available.
