CodeGenerationOptions Enumeration
Specifies various options to use when generating .NET Framework types for use with an XML Web Service.
This enumeration has a FlagsAttribute attribute that allows a bitwise combination of its member values.
Namespace: System.Xml.SerializationAssembly: System.Xml (in System.Xml.dll)
| Member name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| None | Represents primitive types by fields and primitive types by System namespace types. | |
| GenerateProperties | Represents primitive types by properties. | |
| GenerateNewAsync | Creates events for the asynchronous invocation of Web methods. | |
| GenerateOldAsync | Creates Begin and End methods for the asynchronous invocation of Web methods. | |
| GenerateOrder | Generates explicitly ordered serialization code as specified through the Order property of the XmlAnyElementAttribute, XmlArrayAttribute, and XmlElementAttribute attributes. | |
| EnableDataBinding | Enables data binding. |
A Web Service Description Language (WSDL) file typically describes a class in XML schema language as an xsd:complex type composed of various primitive xsd:complex and xsd:simple types. When generating a .NET Framework class that represents a given xsd:complex type, you must choose how to represent the various primitive types it contains.
By default, each primitive is implemented as a field. If you specify the GenerateProperties option, each primitive type is instead implemented as a property.
Ordering of Serialization Code
The GenerateOrder member instructs the code generator to create the serialization code in a specific order as determined by the Order property of the following attributes:
Note |
|---|
Once the Order property has been set on one public property or field in a type, it must be applied to all public properties and fields for that type and all inherited types. |
The following example illustrates the use of the CodeGenerationOptions enumeration to specify the behavior of a ServiceDescriptionImporter object.
Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows XP SP2 x64 Edition, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
The .NET Framework does not support all versions of every platform. For a list of the supported versions, see .NET Framework System Requirements.
