I want to serialize xml which works but I have a problem. Sometimes I have the same tag multiple times but on different places. So the order is important so I cant just stick it in an list.
For example I have the following xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<commands>
<execute>some statement</execute>
<wait>5</wait>
<execute>some statement</execute>
<wait>5</wait>
<execute>some statement</execute>
<execute>some statement</execute>
</commands>
Then my object would look something like this:
[XmlRoot(ElementName="commands")]
public class Commands {
[XmlElement(ElementName="execute")]
public List<string> Execute { get; set; }
[XmlElement(ElementName="wait")]
public List<int> Wait { get; set; }
}
If I then serialize it with the following function:
var xmlSerializer = new XmlSerializer(obj.GetType());
using (var writer = new Utf8StringWriter())
{
xmlSerializer.Serialize(writer, obj);
return writer.ToString();
}
The order will not be the same.... It would first serialize the execute tags and then the wait statements. While the order is important.
Does someone have a clue on how to tackle this problem?
Ps. changing the xml is not a solution as I'm tied to that....
Thanks in advance!
After searching for a while I tackle the problem as the following. The wait and execute are basically commands to I serialize now a list of commands. Of course the seriliazer will complain that it can't serlize this because it is a list of interfaces (ICommand) so I implemented the IXmlSerliazer so that I tell how to serliaze this.
This worked actually quite good
