ExportOptions Class
Represents the options that can be set for an XsdDataContractExporter.
Assembly: System.Runtime.Serialization (in System.Runtime.Serialization.dll)
The ExportOptions type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | DataContractSurrogate | Gets or sets a serialization surrogate. |
![]() | KnownTypes | Gets the collection of types that may be encountered during serialization or deserialization. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
The XsdDataContractExporter is used to generate XSD schemas from a type or assembly. You can also use the XsdDataContractImporter to generate .NET Framework code from a schema document.
For more information about importing and exporting schemas, see Schema Import and Export and Exporting Schemas From Classes.
The KnownTypes property is used by the DataContractSerializer to include types that can be read in an object graph. For more information about the data contract and known types, see Data Contract Known Types.
For more information about data contracts, see Using Data Contracts.
The following example creates an instance of the ExportOptions class and adds a type (Possessions) to the collection returned by the KnownTypes property.
The XsdDataContractExporter then exports the schemas of the types, including the Possessions type added to the collection.
