   {
      XmlSerializerNamespaces^ xmlNamespaces =
         gcnew XmlSerializerNamespaces;
      
      // Add three prefix-namespace pairs.
      xmlNamespaces->Add( "money", "http://www.cpandl.com" );
      xmlNamespaces->Add( "books", "http://www.cohowinery.com" );
      xmlNamespaces->Add( "software", "http://www.microsoft.com" );

      return xmlNamespaces;
   }

private XmlSerializerNamespaces AddNamespaces()
{
   XmlSerializerNamespaces xmlNamespaces =
   new XmlSerializerNamespaces();

   // Add three prefix-namespace pairs.
   xmlNamespaces.Add("money", "http://www.cpandl.com");
   xmlNamespaces.Add("books", "http://www.cohowinery.com");
   xmlNamespaces.Add("software", "http://www.microsoft.com");

   return xmlNamespaces;
}

Private Function AddNamespaces() As XmlSerializerNamespaces
    Dim xmlNamespaces As New XmlSerializerNamespaces()
    
    ' Add three prefix-namespace pairs.
    xmlNamespaces.Add("money", "http://www.cpandl.com")
    xmlNamespaces.Add("books", "http://www.cohowinery.com")
    xmlNamespaces.Add("software", "http://www.microsoft.com")
    
    Return xmlNamespaces
End Function

Remarks

If you want the XmlSerializer to qualify the element and attribute names in an XML document, you must Add the prefix and namespace pairs to an XmlSerializerNamespaces object.

Any namespaces that you add must conform to the W3C Namespaces in XML specification.
