XmlAttributes.XmlElements Property

Definition

Gets a collection of objects that specify how the XmlSerializer serializes a public field or read/write property as an XML element.

public:
 property System::Xml::Serialization::XmlElementAttributes ^ XmlElements { System::Xml::Serialization::XmlElementAttributes ^ get(); };
public System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttributes XmlElements { get; }
member this.XmlElements : System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttributes
Public ReadOnly Property XmlElements As XmlElementAttributes

Property Value

An XmlElementAttributes that contains a collection of XmlElementAttribute objects.

Examples

The following example serializes the Transportation class, which contains a single field named Vehicles that returns an ArrayList. The example applies two XmlElementAttribute attributes to the Vehicles field. The example creates two XmlElementAttribute objects and adds them to the XmlElementAttributes collection of an XmlAttributes object. To allow the array to accept different object types, the XmlAttributes object is added to the XmlAttributeOverrides object.

Remarks

For each overridden member that is serialized as an XML element, you must add a new XmlElementAttribute to an XmlElementAttributes by calling the Add method. By default, an XmlElementAttributes object is created and assigned to the XmlElements property.
