# XPathCompiler.BackwardsCompatible Property

XPath 1.0 Backwards Compatibility Mode. If true, backwards compatibility mode is set. In backwards compatibility mode, more implicit type conversions are allowed in XPath expressions, for example it is possible to compare a number with a string. The default is false (backwards compatibility mode is off).

public bool BackwardsCompatible {get; set;}
