Если ваш заказ содержит свойства, а не список, вы можете указать сериализатору назвать элементы следующим образом:
[XmlRoot("order")]
public class Order
{
private Whatever whateverInstance;
[XmlElement("ItemType")]
public Whatever WhateverInstance
{
get { return whateverInstance; }
set { whateverInstance = value; }
}
private Something somethingInstance;
[XmlElement("ItemType")]
public Something SomethingInstance
{
get { return somethingInstance; }
set { somethingInstance = value; }
}
}
Если это список вещей, которые вы можете получить с одинаковым именем элемента, но вы получите избыточный атрибут xsi:Type
:
[XmlRoot("order")]
public class Order
{
private ItemType[] itemTypes;
[XmlElement("ItemType")]
public ItemType[] ItemTypes
{
get { return itemTypes; }
set { itemTypes = value; }
}
}
[XmlInclude(typeof(Clubs))]
[XmlInclude(typeof(Gift))]
public abstract class ItemType
{
private string type = "None";
[XmlAttribute]
public string Type
{
get { return type; }
set { type = value; }
}
}
public class Clubs : ItemType
{
public Clubs()
{
Type = "Clubs";
}
private Club[] clubsArray;
[XmlElement("Club")]
public Club[] ClubsArray
{
get { return clubsArray; }
set { clubsArray = value; }
}
}
public class Club
{
private int num = 0;
[XmlAttribute("num")]
public int Num
{
get { return num; }
set { num = value; }
}
private string clubName = "";
public string ClubName
{
get { return clubName; }
set { clubName = value; }
}
private string clubChoice = "";
public string ClubChoice
{
get { return clubChoice; }
set { clubChoice = value; }
}
}
public class Gift : ItemType
{
public Gift()
{
Type = "Gift";
}
private string val = "";
[XmlAttribute("val")]
public string Val
{
get { return val; }
set { val = value; }
}
private string giftName = "";
public string GiftName
{
get { return giftName; }
set { giftName = value; }
}
private string giftDescription = "";
public string GiftDescription
{
get { return giftDescription; }
set { giftDescription = value; }
}
private int giftQuanity = 0;
public int GiftQuanity
{
get { return giftQuanity; }
set { giftQuanity = value; }
}
}
Тест:
List<ItemType> list = new List<ItemType>();
list.Add(new Clubs() { ClubsArray = new Club[] { new Club() { Num = 0, ClubName = "Some Name", ClubChoice = "Something Else" } } });
list.Add(new Gift() { Val = "MailGreeting", GiftName = "MailGreeting", GiftDescription = "GiftDescription", GiftQuanity = 1});
Order order = new Order();
rder.ItemTypes = list.ToArray();
XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(Order));
StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop) + "\\Stuff.xml");
serializer.Serialize(sw, order);
sw.Close();
Выход:
<order xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<ItemType xsi:type="Clubs" Type="Clubs">
<Club num="0">
<ClubName>Some Name</ClubName>
<ClubChoice>Something Else</ClubChoice>
</Club>
</ItemType>
<ItemType xsi:type="Gift" Type="Gift" val="MailGreeting">
<GiftName>MailGreeting</GiftName>
<GiftDescription>GiftDescription</GiftDescription>
<GiftQuanity>1</GiftQuanity>
</ItemType>
</order>
