Gets or sets the name of the XML type.

public:
 property System::String ^ TypeName { System::String ^ get(); void set(System::String ^ value); };

public string TypeName { get; set; }

member this.TypeName : string with get, set

Public Property TypeName As String

Property Value

String

The name of the XML type. The default is the class name.

Examples

The following example serializes a class named Group. The SoapTypeAttribute is applied to the class with the TypeName set to "SoapGroupType". The SoapTypeAttribute is also overridden, changing the TypeName to "Team". Both versions are serialized, resulting in two files: SoapType.xml and SoapType2.xml.

Remarks

Apply the SoapTypeAttribute 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 SoapTypeAttribute object's properties, 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.
