member this.AttributeName : string with get, set

Public Property AttributeName As String

Property Value

String

The name of the XML attribute. The default is the member identifier.

Examples

The following example serializes a class that contains several fields to which the SoapAttributeAttribute is applied. The AttributeName property is set for the Today field.

Remarks

Use the AttributeName property to specify an XML attribute name when the default value cannot be used. For example, if the XML attribute name is invalid as a member identifier, use a valid name for the identifier while setting the AttributeName to an invalid name.
