Examples

The following example creates two instances of the XmlTypeAttribute class that are used to override the serialization of the two classes.

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Xml.Serialization;

public class Person
{
   public string personName;
   public Address address;
}
public class Address
{
   public string state;
   public string zip;
}

public class PersonTypeAttribute
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      PersonTypeAttribute myPersonTypeAttribute= new PersonTypeAttribute();
      myPersonTypeAttribute.SerializeObject("XmlType.xml");
   }
   
   public XmlSerializer CreateOverrider()
   {
      XmlAttributeOverrides personOverride = new XmlAttributeOverrides();      

      XmlAttributes personAttributes = new XmlAttributes();      
      XmlTypeAttribute personType = new XmlTypeAttribute();
      personType.TypeName = "Employee";
      personType.Namespace = "http://www.microsoft.com";
      personAttributes.XmlType = personType;

      XmlAttributes addressAttributes = new XmlAttributes();
      // Create 'XmlTypeAttribute' with 'TypeName' as an argument.
      XmlTypeAttribute addressType = new XmlTypeAttribute("Address");
      addressType.Namespace = "http://www.microsoft.com";
      addressAttributes.XmlType=addressType;

      personOverride.Add(typeof(Person) ,personAttributes);
      personOverride.Add(typeof(Address),addressAttributes);

      XmlSerializer myXmlSerializer = new XmlSerializer
         (typeof(Person), personOverride);
      return myXmlSerializer;
   }

   public void SerializeObject(string filename)
   {
      XmlSerializer myXmlSerializer = CreateOverrider();

      Address myAddress = new Address();
      myAddress.state="AAA";
      myAddress.zip="11111";

      Person myPerson = new Person();
      myPerson.personName="Smith";
      myPerson.address=myAddress;
      // Serialize to a file.
      TextWriter writer = new StreamWriter(filename);
      myXmlSerializer.Serialize(writer, myPerson);
   }
}

XmlTypeAttribute(String)

Source:
XmlTypeAttribute.cs
Source:
XmlTypeAttribute.cs
Source:
XmlTypeAttribute.cs

Initializes a new instance of the XmlTypeAttribute class and specifies the name of the XML type.

public XmlTypeAttribute (string typeName);
public XmlTypeAttribute (string? typeName);

Parameters

typeName
String

The name of the XML type that the XmlSerializer generates when it serializes the class instance (and recognizes when it deserializes the class instance).

Examples

The following example creates two instances of the XmlTypeAttribute class that are used to override the serialization of the two classes.

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Xml.Serialization;

public class Person
{
   public string personName;
   public Address address;
}
public class Address
{
   public string state;
   public string zip;
}

public class PersonTypeAttribute
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      PersonTypeAttribute myPersonTypeAttribute= new PersonTypeAttribute();
      myPersonTypeAttribute.SerializeObject("XmlType.xml");
   }
   
   public XmlSerializer CreateOverrider()
   {
      XmlAttributeOverrides personOverride = new XmlAttributeOverrides();      

      XmlAttributes personAttributes = new XmlAttributes();      
      XmlTypeAttribute personType = new XmlTypeAttribute();
      personType.TypeName = "Employee";
      personType.Namespace = "http://www.microsoft.com";
      personAttributes.XmlType = personType;

      XmlAttributes addressAttributes = new XmlAttributes();
      // Create 'XmlTypeAttribute' with 'TypeName' as an argument.
      XmlTypeAttribute addressType = new XmlTypeAttribute("Address");
      addressType.Namespace = "http://www.microsoft.com";
      addressAttributes.XmlType=addressType;

      personOverride.Add(typeof(Person) ,personAttributes);
      personOverride.Add(typeof(Address),addressAttributes);

      XmlSerializer myXmlSerializer = new XmlSerializer
         (typeof(Person), personOverride);
      return myXmlSerializer;
   }

   public void SerializeObject(string filename)
   {
      XmlSerializer myXmlSerializer = CreateOverrider();

      Address myAddress = new Address();
      myAddress.state="AAA";
      myAddress.zip="11111";

      Person myPerson = new Person();
      myPerson.personName="Smith";
      myPerson.address=myAddress;
      // Serialize to a file.
      TextWriter writer = new StreamWriter(filename);
      myXmlSerializer.Serialize(writer, myPerson);
   }
}

Remarks

Apply the XmlTypeAttribute to a class to specify the XML type's namespace, the XML type name, and whether to include the type in the XML schema document. To see the results of setting the properties of the XmlTypeAttribute class, compile your application as an executable or DLL, and pass the resulting file to the XML Schema Definition Tool (Xsd.exe). The tool writes the schema, including the type definition.
