XmlSerializer Class

Definition

Serializes and deserializes objects into and from XML documents. The XmlSerializer enables you to control how objects are encoded into XML.

Examples

The following example contains two main classes: PurchaseOrder and Test. The PurchaseOrder class contains information about a single purchase. The Test class contains the methods that create the purchase order, and that read the created purchase order.

Remarks

For more information about this API, see Supplemental API remarks for XmlSerializer.

Constructors

XmlSerializer()

Initializes a new instance of the XmlSerializer class.

XmlSerializer(Type, String)

Initializes a new instance of the XmlSerializer class that can serialize objects of the specified type into XML documents, and deserialize XML documents into objects of the specified type. Specifies the default namespace for all the XML elements.

XmlSerializer(Type, Type[])

Initializes a new instance of the XmlSerializer class that can serialize objects of the specified type into XML documents, and deserialize XML documents into object of a specified type. If a property or field returns an array, the extraTypes parameter specifies objects that can be inserted into the array.

XmlSerializer(Type, XmlAttributeOverrides, Type[], XmlRootAttribute, String, String, Evidence)
Obsolete.

Initializes a new instance of the XmlSerializer class that can serialize objects of the specified type into XML document instances, and deserialize XML document instances into objects of the specified type. This overload allows you to supply other types that can be encountered during a serialization or deserialization operation, as well as a default namespace for all XML elements, the class to use as the XML root element, its location, and credentials required for access.

XmlSerializer(Type, XmlAttributeOverrides, Type[], XmlRootAttribute, String, String)

Initializes a new instance of the XmlSerializer class that can serialize objects of type Object into XML document instances, and deserialize XML document instances into objects of type Object. Each object to be serialized can itself contain instances of classes, which this overload overrides with other classes. This overload also specifies the default namespace for all the XML elements and the class to use as the XML root element.

XmlSerializer(Type, XmlAttributeOverrides, Type[], XmlRootAttribute, String)

Initializes a new instance of the XmlSerializer class that can serialize objects of type Object into XML document instances, and deserialize XML document instances into objects of type Object. Each object to be serialized can itself contain instances of classes, which this overload overrides with other classes. This overload also specifies the default namespace for all the XML elements and the class to use as the XML root element.

XmlSerializer(Type, XmlAttributeOverrides)

Initializes a new instance of the XmlSerializer class that can serialize objects of the specified type into XML documents, and deserialize XML documents into objects of the specified type. Each object to be serialized can itself contain instances of classes, which this overload can override with other classes.

XmlSerializer(Type, XmlRootAttribute)

Initializes a new instance of the XmlSerializer class that can serialize objects of the specified type into XML documents, and deserialize an XML document into object of the specified type. It also specifies the class to use as the XML root element.

XmlSerializer(Type)

Initializes a new instance of the XmlSerializer class that can serialize objects of the specified type into XML documents, and deserialize XML documents into objects of the specified type.

XmlSerializer(XmlTypeMapping)

Initializes an instance of the XmlSerializer class using an object that maps one type to another.

Methods

CanDeserialize(XmlReader)

Gets a value that indicates whether this XmlSerializer can deserialize a specified XML document.

CreateReader()

Returns an object used to read the XML document to be serialized.

CreateWriter()

When overridden in a derived class, returns a writer used to serialize the object.

Deserialize(Stream)

Deserializes the XML document contained by the specified Stream.

Deserialize(TextReader)

Deserializes the XML document contained by the specified TextReader.

Deserialize(XmlReader, String, XmlDeserializationEvents)

Deserializes the object using the data contained by the specified XmlReader.

Deserialize(XmlReader, String)

Deserializes the XML document contained by the specified XmlReader and encoding style.

Deserialize(XmlReader, XmlDeserializationEvents)

Deserializes an XML document contained by the specified XmlReader and allows the overriding of events that occur during deserialization.

Deserialize(XmlReader)

Deserializes the XML document contained by the specified XmlReader.

Deserialize(XmlSerializationReader)

Deserializes the XML document contained by the specified XmlSerializationReader.

Equals(Object)

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.
