Occurs when the XmlSerializer encounters an XML node of unknown type during deserialization.

public:
 event System::Xml::Serialization::XmlNodeEventHandler ^ UnknownNode;

member this.UnknownNode : System.Xml.Serialization.XmlNodeEventHandler 
Public Custom Event UnknownNode As XmlNodeEventHandler

Event Type

XmlNodeEventHandler

Examples

The following example prints the type of any encountered unknown node.

Remarks

By default, after calling the Deserialize method, the XmlSerializer ignores XML nodes of unknown types. However, you can use this event to handle such node types.
