XmlNodeEventHandler Delegate
Represents the method that handles the UnknownNode event of an XmlSerializer.
Assembly: System.Xml (in System.Xml.dll)
Parameters
- sender
-
Type:
System.Object
The source of the event.
- e
-
Type:
System.Xml.Serialization.XmlNodeEventArgs
An XmlNodeEventArgs that contains the event data.
When you create an XmlNodeEventHandler delegate, you identify the method that handles the event. To associate the event with your event handler, add an instance of the delegate to the event. The event handler is called whenever the event occurs, unless you remove the delegate. For more information about event handler delegates, see NIB: Events and Delegates.
The UnknownNode event occurs only when you call the Deserialize method.
The following example creates an XmlSerializer, adds an event handler for the UnknownNode event, and deserializes an object.
Private Sub DeserializeItem(ByVal filename As String) Dim mySerializer As New XmlSerializer(GetType(ObjectToDeserialize)) ' Add an instance of the delegate to the event. AddHandler mySerializer.UnknownNode, AddressOf Serializer_UnknownNode ' A FileStream is needed to read the file to deserialize. Dim fs As New FileStream(filename, FileMode.Open) Dim o As ObjectToDeserialize = _ CType(mySerializer.Deserialize(fs), ObjectToDeserialize) End Sub 'DeserializeItem Private Sub Serializer_UnknownNode _ (ByVal sender As Object, _ ByVal e As XmlNodeEventArgs) Console.WriteLine("UnknownNode Name: " & e.Name) Console.WriteLine("UnknownNode LocalName: " & e.LocalName) Console.WriteLine("UnknownNode Namespace URI: " & e.NamespaceURI) Console.WriteLine("UnknownNode Text: " & e.Text) Dim o As Object = e.ObjectBeingDeserialized Console.WriteLine("Object being deserialized " & o.ToString()) Dim myNodeType As XmlNodeType = e.NodeType Console.WriteLine(myNodeType) End Sub
