XmlArrayItemAttribute.DataType Property

Definition

Gets or sets the XML data type of the generated XML element.

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 definition (XSD) data type.

Examples

The following example serializes a class named PurchaseOrder. Several instances of the XmlArrayItemAttribute class are applied to three members, and the DataType property for each instance is set to a type allowed in the array.

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 objects, and apply an XmlArrayItemAttribute with the DataType property set to "base64Binary" or "hexBinary", as appropriate. For the XML Schema time and date data types, use the DateTime type and apply the XmlArrayItemAttribute with the DataType set to "date" or "time".

For every XML Schema type that is mapped to a string, apply the XmlArrayItemAttribute with its DataType property set to the XML Schema type. However, this does not change the serialization format, 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 then passing it as an XML attribute.

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