I'm using XmlSerializer.Serialize , and it produces line breaks and unnecessary spaces. How to avoid it?
Perhaps you could use the overload accepting an XmlWriter
, and configure the given XmlWriter
with an XmlWriterSettings
instance?
XmlWriterSettings
allows you to control the application of line breaks and indentation.
void Serialize(Object o)
{
XmlWriterSettings settings = new XmlWriterSettings();
settings.Indent = false;
settings.NewLineHandling = NewLineHandling.None;
//settings.OtherProperties = values;
using (XmlWriter writer = XmlWriter.Create(CreateStream(), settings))
{
_serializer.Serialize(writer, o);
}
}
It's interesting, I thought there was no formatting by default. I just tried the following and got no formatting:
using (var stream = new MemoryStream())
{
System.Text.Encoding encoding;
using (var writer = XmlWriter.Create(stream))
{
if (writer == null)
{
throw new InvalidOperationException("writer is null");
}
encoding = writer.Settings.Encoding;
var ser = new XmlSerializer(obj.GetType());
ser.Serialize(writer, obj);
}
stream.Position = 0;
using (var reader = new StreamReader(stream, encoding, true))
{
return reader.ReadToEnd();
}
}
in a sample run, it returned the following XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><obj xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"><childOne /><childTwo /><text>text1</text><text>text2</text></obj>
Please also check if serialized classes contain members of XML-type (like XmlElement). I used Xsd2Code tool to generate classes from XSD and (in very special case) it has created a member of type XmlElement. During serialization this member had its own formatting (identation to be exact). Even if I had turned on (or off) XmlSerializer indentation it had no affect on the XmlElement member.
