Examples

The following example applies the XmlEnumAttribute attribute to members of an enumeration. The generated XML data conforms to the values set for the Name property.

public enum class EmployeeStatus
{
   [XmlEnum("Single")]
   One,
   [XmlEnum("Double")]
   Two,
   [XmlEnum("Triple")]
   Three
};

public enum EmployeeStatus
{
   [XmlEnum("Single")]
   One,
   [XmlEnum("Double")]
   Two,
   [XmlEnum("Triple")]
   Three
}

Public Enum EmployeeStatus
   <XmlEnumAttribute("Single")> One
   <XmlEnumAttribute("Double")> Two
   <XmlEnumAttribute("Triple")> Three
End Enum
