Gets or sets a collection of objects that specify how the XmlSerializer serializes items inserted into an array returned by a public field or read/write property.

public:
 property System::Xml::Serialization::XmlArrayItemAttributes ^ XmlArrayItems { System::Xml::Serialization::XmlArrayItemAttributes ^ get(); };

public System.Xml.Serialization.XmlArrayItemAttributes XmlArrayItems { get; }

member this.XmlArrayItems : System.Xml.Serialization.XmlArrayItemAttributes

Public ReadOnly Property XmlArrayItems As XmlArrayItemAttributes

Property Value

XmlArrayItemAttributes

An XmlArrayItemAttributes object that contains a collection of XmlArrayItemAttribute objects.

Examples

The following example serializes a class that contains a field named Members that returns an array of objects. Two XmlArrayItemAttribute objects are created to allow the field to accept objects that derive from the base class named Member. Each object is added to the XmlAttributes through the XmlArrayItems property.

Remarks

The XmlArrayItems property allows you to specify the derived types that can be inserted into an array returned by a public field or public read/write property. For each new type you want the field or property to accept, create an XmlArrayItemAttribute object and Add it to the XmlArrayItemAttributes) returned by the XmlArrayItems property. (The new type must be derived from the type already accepted by the field or property.) Add the XmlAttributes object to an XmlAttributeOverrides object and specify the type of the object that contains the field or property, and the name of the field or property. Construct an XmlSerializer with the XmlAttributeOverrides object before calling Serialize or Deserialize method.
