I have a C# class that I have inherited. I have successfully 'built' the object. But I need to serialize the object to XML. Is there an easy way to do it? It looks like the class has been set up for serialization, but I'm not sure how to get the XML representation. My class definition looks like this. Jul 20, 2015 The class being serialized must have a public constructor without parameters. Robust Programming. The following conditions may cause an exception: The class being serialized does not have a public, parameterless constructor. The file exists and is read-only (IOException). The path is too long (PathTooLongException). The disk is full (IOException). Serialization is the process of converting an object into a stream of bytes. In this article, I will show you how to serialize object to XML in C#. XML serialization converts the public fields and properties of an object into an XML stream.
Nov 26, 2011 I want to serialize a List to a xml file, what should I do? I tried to add XmlElement(ElementName='.' ) before all of the properties of Person class and Address class, but after serializing, I got a xml file which all the properties I want to serialize as an element of the xml been serialized as attribute. Now I want to convert this instance into a XML document in form of a string. After this I have to proof if both strings (of XML documents) are the same. This I have to do, because I make unit tests of the first method in which I read an XML document into a StringReader and serialize it into a. I want to save the program data to an XML file, I have used the code below (just a snippet, I have matching code for the other classes). I am wondering if there is an easier way for me to do this, like write the whole theGarage class to an XML file and read it in without having to write all this code like I.

I have a collection of classes that I want to serialize out to an XML file. It looks something like this:
Where a bar is just a wrapper for a collection of properties, like this:
I want to mark this up so that it outputs to an XML file - this will be used for both persistence, and also to render the settings via an XSLT to a nice human-readable form.
I want to get a nice XML representation like this:
where are all of the Bars in the Barlist are written out with all of their properties. I'm fairly sure that I'll need some markup on the class definition to make it work, but I can't seem to find the right combination.

I've marked Foo with the attribute
and the
list<Bar>
with the attributein an attempt to tell the Serializer what I want to happen. This doesn't seem to work however and I just get an empty tag, looking like this:
I'm not sure if the fact I'm using Automatic Properties should have any effect, or if the use of generics requires any special treatment. I've gotten this to work with simpler types like a list of strings, but a list of classes so far eludes me.

Just to check, have you marked Bar as [Serializable]?
Also, you need a parameter-less ctor on Bar, to deserialize
Hmm, I used:

Everything looks great. As @Carl said you need to add the [Serializable] attibute to your classes, but other than that your XML creation should work find.

It has been over 5 years since this item was posted. I give my experience from July 2013 (.NET Framework 4.5). For what it's worth and to whom it may concern:
When I define a class like so: (VB.Net code)
![Serialize A Class To Xml Serialize A Class To Xml](/uploads/1/2/5/0/125076390/242352832.png)
C# Serialize Class To Xmlelement
With this definition the class is (de)serialized without any problems. This is the XML that comes out of here:
It only took me two days to figure it out that the solution was to leave out the
