Examples

The following example serializes a class named Group. The serialization of the GroupName and IgnoreThis fields and the members of the GroupType enumeration are overridden. In the CreateOverrideSerializer method, a SoapAttributeOverrides is created, and for each overridden member or enumeration, a SoapAttributes is created with the appropriate property set and added to the SoapAttributeOverrides. An XmlTypeMapping is created using the SoapAttributeOverrides, and that XmlTypeMapping is used to create the XmlSerializer that overrides the default serialization.

Remarks

For each member or class instance whose serialization is being overridden, you must create a new SoapAttributes. Set the properties for the SoapAttributes as appropriate to the member or object, then add the SoapAttributes to an instance of the SoapAttributeOverrides class.
