xml serialisation

[JoZ CaVaLLo]

Hi... I need to create an XML file from an object, and I have to obtain the the following root element:

<declaresalary>
xmlns:st="http://www.swissdec.ch/schema/sd/20051002/SalaryDeclarationServiceTypes"
xmlns:ct="http://www.swissdec.ch/schema/sd/20051002/SalaryDeclarationContainer"
xmlns:sd="http://www.swissdec.ch/schema/sd/20051002/SalaryDeclaration"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
ct:requestcontext
...

My problem is that I can't figure out how to set all those xmlns attributes. Can somebody give me an hint please?

Life is not short... the problem is only how you organize yourself

System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializerNamespaces i think

xacc.ide - now with TabsToSpaces support
IronScheme - 1.0 alpha 4a out now (29 May 2008)

the right use of XmlSerializerNamespaces is

XmlSerializerNamespaces namespaces = new XmlSerializerNamespaces();
namespaces.Add("ct", "http://www.swissdec.ch/schema/sd/20051002/SalaryDeclarationContainer");
namespaces.Add("sd", "http://www.swissdec.ch/schema/sd/20051002/SalaryDeclaration");
namespaces.Add("xsi", "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance");

System.IO.File.Delete(pPathToGenerate);
fs = new System.IO.FileStream(pPathToGenerate, System.IO.FileMode.Create);
writer = new System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer(typeof(XmlSerializatorItems.DeclareSalary));
writer.Serialize(fs, oDeclare, namespaces);
fs.Close();

In the object to serialize you have to specify the namespace for each field.
