XmlElementAttribute.DataType Property

Definition

Gets or sets the XML Schema definition (XSD) data type of the XML element generated by the XmlSerializer.

public:
 property System::String ^ DataType { System::String ^ get(); void set(System::String ^ value); };
public string DataType { get; set; }
member this.DataType : string with get, set
Public Property DataType As String

Property Value

An XML Schema data type.

Exceptions

The XML Schema data type you have specified cannot be mapped to the.NET data type.

Examples

The following example serializes a class named Group that contains a field named ExtraInfo, which returns an ArrayList. The example applies two instances of the XmlElementAttribute to the field and specifies different DataType values for each instance. Each instance enables the XmlSerializer to serialize the specified types inserted into the array.

   /* Apply two XmlElementAttributes to the field. Set the DataType

      both types. The Namespace is also set to different values
      for each type. */

   // A TextWriter is needed to write the file.

   // Create the XmlSerializer using the XmlAttributeOverrides.

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 XmlElementAttribute 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 XmlElementAttribute with the DataType set to "date" or "time".

For every XML Schema type that is mapped to a string, apply the XmlElementAttribute with its DataType property set to the XML Schema type. It is possible that this can change the serialization format, not 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 than passing it as an XML Schema attribute.

For more information about XML data types, see the World Wide Web Consortium document named XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes.
