Gets or sets a value that indicates whether the XML element name generated by the XmlSerializer is qualified or unqualified.

 property System::Xml::Schema::XmlSchemaForm Form { System::Xml::Schema::XmlSchemaForm get(); void set(System::Xml::Schema::XmlSchemaForm value); };

public System.Xml.Schema.XmlSchemaForm Form { get; set; }

Public Property Form As XmlSchemaForm

Property Value

XmlSchemaForm

One of the XmlSchemaForm values. The default is XmlSchemaForm.None.

Examples

The following example serializes an instance of the Enterprises class. Two XML elements have the same local name (Company) but different prefixes. The example sets the Form property is set to XmlForm.Qualified to ensure that the qualified names occur in the XML instance.

Remarks

The Form property determines whether an XML element name is qualified or unqualified. The Form property conforms to the 1999 World Wide Web Consortium document titled Namespaces in XML.

If the Namespace property is set to any value, attempting to set the Form property to XmlSchemaForm.Unqualified throws an exception.

The default setting, XmlSchemaForm.None, instructs the XmlSerializer to check the schema for the XML document to determine whether the namespace is qualified. If the schema does not specify a value for an individual element or attribute, the XmlSerializer uses the elementFormDefault and attributeFormDefault values to determine whether an element or attribute is qualified. The following XML code shows a schema:

<schema elementFormDefault="qualified"   
attributeFormDefault="unqualified"... >  
   <element name="Name"/>  
   <attribute name="Number"/>  
</schema>

When the XmlSerializer reads the schema, the Form value for both the Name and Number is XmlSchemaForm.None, but the Name element is qualified, while the Number element is unqualified.
