I got the below XML (It is just a part of a big XML where I have my problem) that I am trying to make a Serializable class to read the same.
<BANKTRANLIST>
<DTSTART>20051001</DTSTART>
<DTEND>20051028</DTEND>
<STMTTRN> <!-- This element can repeat any number of times -->
<TRNTYPE>CHECK</TRNTYPE>
<DTPOSTED>20051004</DTPOSTED>
<TRNAMT>-200.00</TRNAMT>
</STMTTRN>
<STMTTRN>
<TRNTYPE>ATM</TRNTYPE>
<DTPOSTED>20051020</DTPOSTED>
<TRNAMT>-300.00</TRNAMT>
</STMTTRN>
</BANKTRANLIST>
My C# Implementation
[Serializable]
[XmlRoot("BANKTRANLIST", Namespace = "http://bank.net", IsNullable = false)]
public class BankTransactionList
{
public BankTransactionList()
{
this.StatementTransactions = new List<StatementTransaction>();
}
[XmlElement("DTSTART")]
public string StartDate { get; set; }
[XmlElement("DTEND")]
public string EndDate { get; set; }
[XmlArray("STMTTRN")]
[XmlArrayItem("STMTTRN")]
public List<StatementTransaction> StatementTransactions { get; set; }
}
[Serializable]
[XmlRoot("STMTTRN", Namespace = "http://bank.net", IsNullable = false)]
public class StatementTransaction
{
// TransactionType : ENUM
[XmlElement("TRNTYPE")]
public TransactionType TransactionType { get; set; }
[XmlElement("DTPOSTED")]
public string DatePosted { get; set; }
[XmlElement("TRNAMT")]
public double TransactionAmount { get; set; }
}
My problem is element wrapped again in element which results to get the below output
...
<STMTTRN> <!-- This does not match my Original XML -->
<STMTTRN>
<TRNTYPE>CHECK</TRNTYPE>
<DTPOSTED>20051004</DTPOSTED>
<TRNAMT>-200.00</TRNAMT>
</STMTTRN>
<STMTTRN>
<TRNTYPE>ATM</TRNTYPE>
<DTPOSTED>20051020</DTPOSTED>
<TRNAMT>-300.00</TRNAMT>
</STMTTRN>
</STMTTRN>
Note: Removing [XmlArray("STMTTRN")] tag from List property will not resolve this, instead it will be
If any one can correct me or give me a better solution would be great !!
Should be [XmlElement]
if you want an element per item without a wrapper element:
[XmlElement("STMTTRN")]
public List<StatementTransaction> StatementTransactions { get; set; }
