I have the following object graph: public class BaseType { } public class DerivedType : BaseType { } When I pass DerivedType to XmlSerializer I need to have it reflect on BaseType instead of DerivedType. Is there a way to control this with attributes without implementing IXmlSerializer on DerivedType? ...
I have managed to serialize a class that inherits from a base class to XML. However, the .NET XmlSerializer produces an XML element that looks as follows: <BaseType xsi:Type="DerivedType" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> This, however, causes the receiving end of a web service to choke and produce an error tha...
I have a class structure that I would like to serialize with Xstream. The root class contains a collection of other objects (of varying types). I would like to only serialize part of the objects that are stored in the collection (primarily their IDs, and not the remaining contents of each element). Anyone have an idea of how I might go...
While trying to answer another question, I was serializing a C# object to an XML string. It was surprisingly hard; this was the shortest code snippet I could come up with: var yourList = new List<int>() { 1, 2, 3 }; var ms = new MemoryStream(); var xtw = new XmlTextWriter(ms, Encoding.UTF8); var xs = new XmlSerializer(yourList.GetType(...

Hi there, I've currently got a class similar to this: public class myClass { **[XmlElement("mcp")]** public int MyClassProperty; } This is to try and reduce the length of the property name for when the class is serialized in a web service call. However I want the class which references myClass via the web service to use MyClassProper...
The following code breaks when the XML has data like "Lord & Hogan". Any suggestions? Thanks, Ken private T GetResponse<T>(String apiObject, String query) { //Deserialize XML into the type specified.

I get this error when reading some data from an SQL column then converting it to XML: "System.InvalidOperationException: There is an error in XML document (182, 16). ---> System.Xml.XmlException: ' ', hexadecimal value 0x0B, is an invalid character." Fair enough, maybe the data is malformed. Except, how can I find the culprit row? S...
Hey guys, I have a WPF application which tightly coupled to linq2sql through WCF. It now turns out the Customer would like some sort of Offline mode using an xml file structure.

I came across a legacy XSD that has a bunch of lines like... <xs:element minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1" default="true" name="Ready" type="xs:boolean" /> ...where minOccurs and maxOccurrs both equal 1, AND there is a default value. Is there any benefit to having the default attr...
The error is when the class gets serialized, I don't get a run time error or anything (unless I try to deserialize). When the XmlSerializer serializes my class, some times it adds some text at then end of the XML. This happens often at the very end: </RootNode>ootNode> Some times it's not at the end but in the middle, something like ...

I'm new to Castor and data binding in general. I'm working on an application that, in part, needs to take data off of a socket and unmarshall the data to make POJOs. Now, I've got the socket stuff down, and I've even generated and compiled java files thanks to Ant and Castor. Here's the problem: the data stream that I'll receive could b...
After doing logging for many years I have now reached a point where I need to be able to postprocess the log files with the long term goal of using the log files as a "transport medium" allowing me to persist objects et. al. so I can replay the backend requests. In order to do so I need to persist objects into a loggable form. The reco...
