I am building an object that contains an ObservableCollection
within an ObservableCollection
. Deserializing the object below works correctly to create the collection of CustomTab
items but not Task
items.
The code shown below produces zero Task
items. If I change the code to:
[XmlElement("Tasks")] // was "Task" in original code
public ObservableCollectionExtended<UtilitiesTask> TasksCollection
I get one item in TasksCollection (should be 2 or 3 elements depending on which CustomTab I am reading).
How can I get TasksCollection populated with all the Task
items under the respective Tasks
root?
NOTE : I have simplified all of the Properties to just { get; set; }
{ get; set; }
{ get; set; }
for readability. In code I have each one sending notification of any changes.
I am using the SimpleMVVM Framework which is where ModelBase<>
comes from.
Here is my code:
CustomTabs.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<CustomTabsConfig xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<CustomTab>
<Header>88888</Header>
<TabVisibility>Visible</TabVisibility>
<Tasks>
<Task>
<TaskName>Task 11</TaskName>
</Task>
<Task>
<TaskName>Task 12</TaskName>
</Task>
</Tasks>
</CustomTab>
<CustomTab>
<Header>555</Header>
<TabVisibility>Visible</TabVisibility>
<Tasks>
<Task>
<TaskName>Task 21</TaskName>
</Task>
<Task>
<TaskName>Task 22</TaskName>
</Task>
<Task>
<TaskName>Task 23</TaskName>
</Task>
</Tasks>
</CustomTab>
</CustomTabsConfig>
CustomTabs.xsd
<?xml version="1.0"?>

CustomTabsConfigModel.cs (edited for brevity)
[XmlRoot("CustomTabsConfig")]
public class CustomTabsConfigModel : ModelBase<CustomTabsConfigModel>
{
private ConfigReader<CustomTabsConfigModel> configReader;
/// <summary>
/// Create a configuration object bound to "CustomTabs.xml"
/// contained in [CommonApplicationData]\[Manufacturer]\[ProductName]
/// </summary>
public CustomTabsConfigModel()
{
}
/// <summary>
/// Create a configuration object bound to the specified file name
/// contained in [CommonApplicationData]\[Manufacturer]\[ProductName]
/// </summary>
/// <param name="fileName"></param>
public CustomTabsConfigModel(String fileName)
{
this.TabsFileName = fileName;
}
/// <summary>
/// Collection of custom tabs
/// </summary>
[XmlElement("CustomTab")]
public ObservableCollection<CustomTab> CustomTabsCollection { get; set; }
/// <summary>
/// Loads Tab info from customtabs.xml file
/// </summary>
public Boolean LoadConfig(String customTabsFileName = "CustomTabs.xml")
{
// Load tabs file
configReader = new ConfigReader<CustomTabsConfigModel>(customTabsFileName);
// if we cannot load the config file then don't do anything else
if (configReader.Load())
{
// update all items from CustomTabs.xml
CustomTabsCollection = configReader.Data.CustomTabsCollection;
}
else
{
Log.Write(LogLevel.Fatal, "Configuration file failed to load.");
return false;
}
return true;
}
}
CustomTab.cs
[XmlRoot("CustomTab")]
public class CustomTab : ModelBase<CustomTab>
{
public CustomTab()
{
this.Header = "";
this.TabVisibility = Visibility.Visible;
}
[XmlElement("Header")]
public String Header { get; set; }
/// <summary>
/// Sets the Visibility of the tab
/// </summary>
[XmlElement("TabVisibility")]
public Visibility TabVisibility { get; set; }
/// <summary>
/// Collection of Tasks
/// </summary>
[XmlElement("Task")]
public ObservableCollection<UtilitiesTask> TasksCollection { get; set; }
}
[XmlRoot("Task")]
public class UtilitiesTask : ModelBase
{
public UtilitiesTask()
{
this.TaskName = "";
}
[XmlElement("TaskName")]
public String TaskName { get; set; }
}
}
I resolved this by updating the TasksCollection
like so:
[XmlArray("Tasks")]
[XmlArrayItem("Task", typeof(UtilitiesTask))]
public ObservableCollection<UtilitiesTask> TaskCollection
