HOW TO：控制衍生類別的序列化

  • 發行項

使用 XmlElementAttribute 屬性變更 XML 項目的名稱並非自訂物件序列化的唯一方法。 您可從現有類別衍生以自訂化 XML 資料流並指示 XmlSerializer 執行個體如何序列化新類別。

例如，指定 Book 類別，您可從其中衍生並建立擁有更多屬性的 ExpandedBook 類別。 然而，您必須指示 XmlSerializer 在序列化或還原序列化時，接受衍生類型。 做法是建立 XmlElementAttribute 執行個體並設定其 Type 屬性為衍生類別類型。 將 XmlElementAttribute 新增至 XmlAttributes 執行個體。 然後，將 XmlAttributes 新增至 XmlAttributeOverrides 執行個體，並指定要覆寫的類型以及接受衍生類別的成員名稱。 下列範例會顯示這一點。
