Deserialization of XML

The deserialization of XML can be insinuate by tagging attributes on the properties of the class. For example, this form

 Public classPaymentaccount {[XmlAttribute ("name")]         Public stringName {Get;Set; } [XmlAttribute ("Environment")]         Public stringEnvironment {Get;Set; } [XmlElement ("WebServiceURL")]         Public stringWebServiceURL {Get; Set; } [XmlElement ("Websiteurl")]         Public stringWEBURL {Get; Set; } [XmlArray ("Paymenttypes")] [XmlArrayItem ("Paymenttype",typeof(Paymenttype))]  PublicList<paymenttype> Paymenttypes {Get;Set; } }

You can also implement IXmlSerializable to implement custom serialization and deserialization

usingSystem;usingSystem.Collections.Generic;usingSystem.Linq;usingsystem.web;usingSystem.Xml;usingSystem.IO;usingSystem.Xml.Serialization;namespacemvctest{[XmlRoot ("SiteMap", Namespace =NameSpace)]  Public classsitemapconfig:ixmlserializable {Private Const stringNameSpace ="Urn:schemas-test-com:sitemap";  Public Staticsitemapconfig Instance {Get{sitemapconfig CG=NULL; stringPath = HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath ("~/config/sitemap.config"); using(FileStream fs =NewFileStream (path, FileMode.Open)) {XmlSerializer xs=NewXmlSerializer (typeof(Sitemapconfig)); Objectobj=XS.                    Deserialize (FS); CG=(sitemapconfig) obj; }                returnCG; }        }         PublicSiteMapNode ParentNode {Get;Set; }  PublicSystem.Xml.Schema.XmlSchema GetSchema () {return NULL; }         Public voidReadXml (XmlReader reader) {XmlDocument doc=NewXmlDocument (); Doc.            Load (reader); XmlNamespaceManager xn=NewXmlNamespaceManager (Doc.            NameTable); Xn. AddNamespace ("SM", NameSpace); XmlNode Pnode= Doc. selectSingleNode ("/sm:sitemap/sm:sitemapnode", xn); ParentNode=NewSiteMapNode () {Children=NewList<sitemapnode>(), Description= pnode.attributes["Description"]. Value, Title=pnode.attributes["title"]. Value, Url= pnode.attributes["URL"].            Value}; XmlNodeList List=Pnode.childnodes;        Readnodes (parentnode, list); }        Private voidreadnodes (SiteMapNode pnode, XmlNodeList nList) {if(nlist==NULL|| Nlist.count = =0)            {                return; } Pnode.children=NewList<sitemapnode>(); foreach(XmlNode nodeinchnList) {SiteMapNode SNode=NewSiteMapNode () {Parent=Pnode, Description= node. attributes["Description"]. Value, Title= node. attributes["title"]. Value, Url= node. attributes["URL"].                Value};                PNODE.CHILDREN.ADD (SNode); Readnodes (SNode, node.            ChildNodes); }        }         Public voidWriteXml (XmlWriter writer) {}} Public classSiteMapNode { PublicSiteMapNode Parent {Get;Set; }  Public stringURL {Get;Set; }  Public stringTitle {Get;Set; }  Public stringDescription {Get;Set; }  PublicList<sitemapnode> Children {Get;Set; } }}

XML file:

<?xml version="1.0"encoding="Utf-8"? ><sitemap xmlns="Urn:schemas-test-com:sitemap"> <sitemapnode url=""title="P1"description=""> <sitemapnode url=""title="C1"description=""/> <sitemapnode url=""title="C2"description=""/> </siteMapNode></siteMap>
