Remarks

The following table lists the XML Schema simple data types with their.NET equivalents.

For the XML Schema base64Binary and hexBinary data types, use an array of Byte structures, and apply a SoapAttributeAttribute with the DataType set to "base64Binary" or "hexBinary", as appropriate. For the XML Schema time and date data types, use the DateTime type and apply the SoapAttributeAttribute with the DataType set to "date" or "time".

For every XML Schema data type that is mapped to a string, apply the SoapAttributeAttribute with its DataType property set to the XML Schema data type. Note that this does not change the serialization format, only the schema for the member.

Note

The property is case-sensitive, so you must set it exactly to one of the XML Schema data types.

Note

Passing binary data as an XML element is more efficient then passing it as an XML attribute.
