I have the following XML;
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<feedback>
<report_metadata>
<org_name>example.com</org_name>
</report_metadata>
</feedback>
and the following Feedback.cs class;
[XmlRoot("feedback", Namespace = "", IsNullable = false)]
public class Feedback
{
[XmlElement("report_metadata")]
public MetaData MetaData { get; set; }
}
[XmlType("report_metadata")]
public class MetaData
{
[XmlAttribute("org_name")]
public string Organisation { get; set; }
}
When I attempt to deserialize, the value for Organisation is null.
var xml = System.IO.File.ReadAllText("example.xml");
var serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(Feedback));
using (var reader = new StringReader(input))
{
var feedback = (Feedback)serializer.Deserialize(reader);
}
Yet, when I change Feedback.cs to the following, it works (obviously the property name has changed).
[XmlType("report_metadata")]
public class MetaData
{
//[XmlAttribute("org_name")]
public string org_name { get; set; }
}
I want the property to be Organisation, not org_name.
In the example XML file org_name
is an XML element, not an XML attribute. Changing [XmlAttribute("org_name")]
to [XmlElement("org_name")]
at the Organisation
property will deserialize it as an element:
[XmlElement("org_name")]
public string Organisation { get; set; }
probably just typo
[XmlAttribute("org_name")]
public string Organisation { get; set; }
was supposed to be
[XmlElement("org_name")]
public string Organisation { get; set; }
Try to modify your Xml classes like
[XmlRoot(ElementName = "report_metadata")]
public class MetaData
{
[XmlElement(ElementName = "org_name")]
public string Organisation { get; set; }
}
[XmlRoot(ElementName = "feedback")]
public class Feedback
{
[XmlElement(ElementName = "report_metadata")]
public MetaData MetaData { get; set; }
}
Then you will get your desired output like
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Feedback feedback = new Feedback();
var xml = System.IO.File.ReadAllText(@"C:\Users\Nullplex6\source\repos\ConsoleApp4\ConsoleApp4\Files\XMLFile1.xml");
var serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(Feedback));
using (var reader = new StringReader(xml))
{
feedback = (Feedback)serializer.Deserialize(reader);
}
Console.WriteLine($"Organization: {feedback.MetaData.Organisation}");
Console.ReadLine();
}
}
