The XPathDiscoveryType complex type, in Configuration Manager 2007, describes discovery information for settings discovered from an XML configuration file. The XML configuration file is located by the FilePath child element. The XPath expression in the XPathExpression element is used to query this XML configuration file. The text that is associated with each of the nodes returned from the XPath query is used to create an instance of the parent setting – if the query returns multiple nodes, multiple instances are created. The (prefix, namespace) pairs in the Declarations element indicate the prefixes and their associated namespaces as used in the XPathExpression.
