Ejemplos de serialización XML

La serialización XML puede adoptar más de una forma, de simple a compleja. Por ejemplo, puede serializar una clase que simplemente consta de campos y propiedades públicos, como se muestra en Introducción a la serialización XML. En los ejemplos de código siguientes se abordan varios escenarios avanzados, incluido cómo usar la serialización XML para generar una secuencia XML que se ajuste a un documento de esquema XML (XSD) específico.

Serialización de un conjunto de datos

Además de serializar una instancia de una clase pública, también puede serializar una instancia de , DataSetcomo se muestra en el ejemplo de código siguiente:

Private Sub SerializeDataSet(filename As String)
    Dim ser As XmlSerializer = new XmlSerializer(GetType(DataSet))
    ' Creates a DataSet; adds a table, column, and ten rows.
    Dim ds As DataSet = new DataSet("myDataSet")
    Dim t As DataTable = new DataTable("table1")
    Dim c As DataColumn = new DataColumn("thing")
    t.Columns.Add(c)
    ds.Tables.Add(t)
    Dim r As DataRow
    Dim i As Integer
    for i = 0 to 10
        r = t.NewRow()
        r(0) = "Thing " &  i
        t.Rows.Add(r)
    Next
    Dim writer As TextWriter = new StreamWriter(filename)
    ser.Serialize(writer, ds)
    writer.Close()
End Sub

private void SerializeDataSet(string filename)
{
    XmlSerializer ser = new XmlSerializer(typeof(DataSet));

    // Creates a DataSet; adds a table, column, and ten rows.
    DataSet ds = new DataSet("myDataSet");
    DataTable t = new DataTable("table1");
    DataColumn c = new DataColumn("thing");
    t.Columns.Add(c);
    ds.Tables.Add(t);
    DataRow r;

    for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
        r = t.NewRow();
        r[0] = "Thing " + i;
        t.Rows.Add(r);
    }

    TextWriter writer = new StreamWriter(filename);
    ser.Serialize(writer, ds);
    writer.Close();
}

Serialización de XmlElement y XmlNode

También puede serializar instancias de una XmlElement clase o XmlNode , como se muestra en el ejemplo de código siguiente:

private Sub SerializeElement(filename As String)
    Dim ser As XmlSerializer = new XmlSerializer(GetType(XmlElement))
    Dim myElement As XmlElement = _
    new XmlDocument().CreateElement("MyElement", "ns")
    myElement.InnerText = "Hello World"
    Dim writer As TextWriter = new StreamWriter(filename)
    ser.Serialize(writer, myElement)
    writer.Close()
End Sub

Private Sub SerializeNode(filename As String)
    Dim ser As XmlSerializer = _
    new XmlSerializer(GetType(XmlNode))
    Dim myNode As XmlNode = new XmlDocument(). _
    CreateNode(XmlNodeType.Element, "MyNode", "ns")
    myNode.InnerText = "Hello Node"
    Dim writer As TextWriter = new StreamWriter(filename)
    ser.Serialize(writer, myNode)
    writer.Close()
End Sub

private void SerializeElement(string filename)
{
    XmlSerializer ser = new XmlSerializer(typeof(XmlElement));
    XmlElement myElement = new XmlDocument().CreateElement("MyElement", "ns");
    myElement.InnerText = "Hello World";
    TextWriter writer = new StreamWriter(filename);
    ser.Serialize(writer, myElement);
    writer.Close();
}

private void SerializeNode(string filename)
{
    XmlSerializer ser = new XmlSerializer(typeof(XmlNode));
    XmlNode myNode = new XmlDocument().
    CreateNode(XmlNodeType.Element, "MyNode", "ns");
    myNode.InnerText = "Hello Node";
    TextWriter writer = new StreamWriter(filename);
    ser.Serialize(writer, myNode);
    writer.Close();
}

Serialización de una clase que contiene un campo que devuelve un objeto complejo

Si una propiedad o campo devuelve un objeto complejo (como una matriz o una instancia de clase), lo XmlSerializer convierte en un elemento anidado dentro del documento XML principal. Por ejemplo, la primera clase del ejemplo de código siguiente devuelve una instancia de la segunda clase:

Public Class PurchaseOrder
    Public MyAddress As Address
End Class

Public Class Address
    Public FirstName As String
End Class

public class PurchaseOrder
{
    public Address MyAddress;
}

public record Address
{
    public string FirstName;
}

La salida XML serializada podría tener este aspecto:

<PurchaseOrder>
    <MyAddress>
        <FirstName>George</FirstName>
    </MyAddress>
</PurchaseOrder>

Serialización de una matriz de objetos

También puede serializar un campo que devuelva una matriz de objetos, como se muestra en el ejemplo de código siguiente:

Public Class PurchaseOrder
    public ItemsOrders () As Item
End Class

Public Class Item
    Public ItemID As String
    Public ItemPrice As decimal
End Class

public class PurchaseOrder
{
    public Item [] ItemsOrders;
}

public class Item
{
    public string ItemID;
    public decimal ItemPrice;
}

Si se ordenan dos elementos, la instancia de clase serializada podría ser similar al código siguiente:

<PurchaseOrder xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"  xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
    <ItemsOrders>
        <Item>
            <ItemID>aaa111</ItemID>
            <ItemPrice>34.22</ItemPrice>
        </Item>
        <Item>
            <ItemID>bbb222</ItemID>
            <ItemPrice>2.89</ItemPrice>
        </Item>
    </ItemsOrders>
</PurchaseOrder>

Serialización de una clase que implementa la interfaz ICollection

Puede crear sus propias clases de colección implementando la interfaz ICollection y utilizando XmlSerializer para serializar instancias de estas clases.

Nota:

Cuando una clase implementa la ICollection interfaz, solo se serializa la colección contenida por la clase . Las propiedades o campos públicos agregados a la clase no se serializarán. Para serializarse, la clase debe incluir un método Add y una propiedad Item (indexador de C#).

Ejemplo de pedido de compra

Puede cortar y pegar el código de ejemplo siguiente en un archivo de texto y cambiarle el nombre con una extensión de nombre de archivo .cs o .vb. Use el compilador de C# o Visual Basic para compilar el archivo. A continuación, ejecútelo con el nombre del ejecutable.

En este ejemplo se usa un escenario sencillo para demostrar cómo se crea y serializa una instancia de un objeto en un flujo de archivos mediante el Serialize método . La secuencia XML se guarda en un archivo. A continuación, se lee y reconstruye el mismo archivo en una copia del objeto original mediante el Deserialize método .

En este ejemplo, se serializa una clase denominada PurchaseOrder y, a continuación, se deserializa. También se incluye una segunda clase denominada Address porque el campo público denominado ShipTo debe establecerse en .Address De forma similar, se incluye una OrderedItem clase porque se debe establecer una matriz de OrderedItem objetos en el OrderedItems campo . Por último, una clase denominada Test contiene el código que serializa y deserializa las clases.

El CreatePO método crea los PurchaseOrderobjetos de clase , Addressy OrderedItem y establece los valores de campo público. El método también construye una instancia de la clase XmlSerializer que se usa para serializar y deserializar el PurchaseOrder.

Nota:

El código pasa el tipo de clase que se serializará al constructor. El código también crea un objeto FileStream que se utiliza para escribir el flujo XML en un documento XML.

El ReadPo método es un poco más sencillo. Simplemente crea objetos para deserializar y leer sus valores. Al igual que con el método CreatePo, primero debe construir un XmlSerializer, pasando al constructor el tipo de clase que se va a deserializar. Se necesita un FileStream para leer el documento XML. Para deserializar los objetos, llame al Deserialize método con FileStream como argumento . El objeto deserializado debe convertirse en una variable de objeto de tipo PurchaseOrder. Luego, el código lee los valores del objeto deserializado PurchaseOrder.

Nota:

Puede leer el archivo PO.xml que se crea para ver la salida XML real.
