I'm trying to transform some XML into HTML using XSLT . Problem: I can't get it to work. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? XML: <ArrayOfBrokerage xmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://www.test.com/"> <Brokerage> <BrokerageID>91</BrokerageID> <LastYodleeUpdate>0001-01-01T00:00:00</LastYodleeUpdate> <Name>E*TRADE</Name> <Validation i:nil="true" /> <Username>PersonalTradingTesting</Username> </Brokerage> </ArrayOfBrokerage> XSLT: <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns="http://www.test.com/" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3

I'm refactoring my XML-serialization, and figured I'd try the DataContractSerializer. Everything runs smoothly, until it needs to serialize this class: using System; using System.Runtime.Serialization; namespace VDB_Sync.Model { [DataContract(Name="Konstant")] public class Konstant : DataFelt { [DataMember] private MySqlDbType mydataType; [DataMember] private object value; public Konstant(string navn, MySqlDbType dataType, object value) : base(navn, dataType, "*Konstant", false, false) { //this.navn = navn; this.mydataType = dataType; this.value = value; if (navn.Contains("*Løbenummer")) {

In C#, if I want to serialize an instance with XmlSerializer , the object's type doesn't have to be marked with [Serializable] attribute. However, for other serialization approaches, such as DataContractSerializer , needs the class be marked as [Serializable] or [DataContract] . Is there any standard or pattern about serialization requirement? This is because XmlSerializer only serializes public fields/properties. Other forms of serialization can serialize private data, which constitutes a potential security risk, so you have to "opt in" using an attribute. Security isn't the only issue;

How do I serialize a list without the outer element using the Data Contract Serializer? I am using .Net 3.5. I have a class that contains a list, amongst other things, that I wish to serialize without the outer element to be compliant with the pertinent XSD: [DataContract(Name="MyClass")] public class MyClass { ... [DataMember(Name="Parameters")] public List<Parameter> Parameters; ... } [DataContract(Name="Parameter")] public struct Parameter { [DataMember(Name="ValueName")]string ValueName; [DataMember(Name="Value")]int Value; public Parameter(string ValueName, int Value) { this.ValueName =

Problem: I have a WCF service setup to be an endpoint for a call from an external system. The call is sending plain xml. I am testing the system by sending calls into the service from Fiddler using the RequestBuilder. The issue is that all of my fields are being deserialized with the exception of two fields. price_retail and price_wholesale . What am I missing? All of the other fields deserialize without an issue - the service responds. It is just these fields. XML Message: <widget_conclusion> <list_criteria_id>123</list_criteria_id> <list_type>consumer</list_type> <qty>500</qty> <price_retail
