XML attribute overloading

public class Group
{

public string GroupName;
[XmlIgnore]
public string Comments;
}

When serializing, the result is as follows

<?xml version= "1.0" encoding= "Utf-8"?>
<group xmlns:xsi= "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd= "Http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" >
<GroupName>.Net</GroupName>
</Group>

As we can see, the comments is not serialized because XmlIgnore is set. For properties that already have XmlIgnore set, it is also possible to re-serialize the first serialization by XmlAttributeOverrides.

Public XmlSerializer Createoverrider ()
{
XmlAttributeOverrides Overr = new XmlAttributeOverrides ();
XmlAttributes attrs = new XmlAttributes ();

Attrs. XmlIgnore = true;
Overr. Add (typeof (Group), "Comments", attrs);

Attrs = new XmlAttributes ();
Attrs. XmlIgnore = false;
Overr. Add (typeof (Group), "GroupName", attrs);

            XmlSerializer Serilizer = new XmlSerializer ( typeof (Group), overr);
            return serilizer;
       }
        public void SerializeObject (string filename)
         {
            XmlSerializer Serializer = Createoverrider ();
            Group group = new Group ();
            Group. GroupName = ". Net";
            group.comments = "Microsoft. NET 3.5";

StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter (filename);
Serializer. Serialize (writer, group);
Writer. Close ();
}

The result of this code, in contrast to the above, serializes the comments and does not contain groupname.
