XmlIncludeAttribute Class
Allows the XmlSerializer to recognize a type when it serializes or deserializes an object.
Namespace: System.Xml.Serialization
Assembly: System.Xml (in System.Xml.dll)
The XmlIncludeAttribute type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
XmlIncludeAttribute | Initializes a new instance of the XmlIncludeAttribute class. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
|
Equals | Infrastructure. Returns a value that indicates whether this instance is equal to a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
|
Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
|
|
GetHashCode | Returns the hash code for this instance. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
|
|
GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
|
|
Match | When overridden in a derived class, returns a value that indicates whether this instance equals a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
|
|
MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
|
|
ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
Use the XmlIncludeAttribute when you call the Serialize or Deserialize method of the XmlSerializer class.
When applying the XmlIncludeAttribute, specify the Type of the derived class. When the XmlSerializer serializes objects that include both the base and the derived class, it can then recognize both object types.
You can use the XmlIncludeAttribute to include derived classes in service description documents that are written in the Web Services Description Language (WSDL). For example, if a method returns an Object, apply the XmlIncludeAttribute to the method and specify the actual types to return.
