CollectionDataContractAttribute Class

Definition

When applied to a collection type, enables custom specification of the collection item elements. This attribute can be applied only to types that are recognized by the DataContractSerializer as valid, serializable collections.

public ref class CollectionDataContractAttribute sealed : Attribute
[System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Class | System.AttributeTargets.Struct, AllowMultiple=false, Inherited=false)]
public sealed class CollectionDataContractAttribute : Attribute
[<System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Class | System.AttributeTargets.Struct, AllowMultiple=false, Inherited=false)>]
type CollectionDataContractAttribute = class
    inherit Attribute
Public NotInheritable Class CollectionDataContractAttribute

Examples

The following example applies the CollectionDataContractAttribute to a class that inherits from the List<T> class. The code sets the Name and ItemName properties to custom values.

[CollectionDataContract(Name = "Custom{0}List", ItemName = "CustomItem")]
public class CustomList<T> : List<T>
{
    public CustomList()
        : base()
    {
    }

    public CustomList(T[] items)
        : base()
    {
        foreach (T item in items)
        {
            Add(item);
        }
    }
}
<CollectionDataContract(Name := "Custom{0}List", ItemName := "CustomItem")> _
Public Class CustomList(Of T)
    Inherits List(Of T)
    Public Sub New()
        MyBase.New()
    End Sub

    Public Sub New(ByVal items() As T)
        MyBase.New()
        For Each item As T In items
            Add(item)
        Next item
    End Sub
End Class

When the ServiceModel Metadata Utility Tool (Svcutil.exe) is used to generate code for the client, the code resembles the following example. Notice that the name of the class is changed, as well as the ItemName. When using generics, the type parameter name is used to create the resulting type name.

// This is the generated code. Note that the class is renamed to "CustomBookList",
// and the ItemName is set to "CustomItem".
[System.CodeDom.Compiler.GeneratedCodeAttribute("System.Runtime.Serialization", "3.0.0.0")]
[System.Runtime.Serialization.CollectionDataContractAttribute(ItemName = "CustomItem")]
public class CustomBookList : System.Collections.Generic.List<Microsoft.Security.Samples.Book>
{
}
' This is the generated code. Note that the class is renamed to "CustomBookList", 
' and the ItemName is set to "CustomItem".
<System.CodeDom.Compiler.GeneratedCodeAttribute("System.Runtime.Serialization", "3.0.0.0"), System.Runtime.Serialization.CollectionDataContractAttribute(ItemName := "CustomItem")> _
Public Class CustomBookList
    Inherits System.Collections.Generic.List(Of Microsoft.Security.Samples.Book)
End Class

Remarks

The CollectionDataContractAttribute is intended to ease interoperability when working with data from non-WCF providers and to control the exact shape of serialized instances. To this end, the ItemName property enables you to control the names of the repeating items inside a collection. This is especially useful when the provider does not use the XML element type name as the array item name, for example, if a provider uses "String" as an element type name instead of the XSD type name "string".

The CollectionDataContractAttribute is also intended to be used with dictionary types to handle keyed collections. Dictionary types are classes that implement either the IDictionary or the IDictionary<TKey,TValue> interface, for example, the Dictionary<TKey,TValue>. Use the KeyName and ValueName properties to set custom names when using the Dictionary<TKey,TValue> class.
