Remarks

The XmlMapping class is the base class for the XmlTypeMapping and XmlMembersMapping classes. It supports built-in and custom XML schema data types, plus SOAP encoding (Section 5 of the SOAP 1.1 specification).

XmlMapping exposes no public or protected members. Use the XmlMapping class instead of deriving a class directly from XmlMapping.
