I am having trouble with XML deserialization.

In a nutshell - I have 2 classes:

• SMSMessage
• SMSSendingResponse

I call an API that takes a bunch of parameters (represented by SMSMessage class)

It returns an XML response. The response looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<data>
  <status>1</status>
  <message>OK</message>
  <results>
    <result>
      <account>12345</account>
      <to>012345678</to>
      <from>054321</from>
      <message>Testing</message>
      <flash></flash>
      <replace></replace>
      <report></report>
      <concat></concat>
      <id>f8d3eea1cbf6771a4bb02af3fb15253e</id>
    </result>
  </results>
</data>

Here is the SMSMessage class (with the xml serialization attributes so far)

using System.Xml.Serialization;

namespace XMLSerializationHelp
{
    [XmlRoot("results")]
    public class SMSMessage
    {
        public string To
        {
            get
            {
                return Result.To;
            }
        }

        public string From
        {
            get
            {
                return Result.From;
            }
        }

        public string Message
        {
            get
            {
                return Result.Message;
            }
        }

        [XmlElement("result")]
        public Result Result { get; set; }
    }
}

Here is SMSMessageSendingResponse:

using System.Xml.Serialization;

namespace XMLSerializationHelp
{
    [XmlRoot("data")]
    public class SMSSendingResponse
    {
        //should come from the results/result/account element. in our example "12345"
        public string AccountNumber
        {
            get
            {
                return SMSMessage.Result.AccountNumber;
            }
        }

        //should come from the "status" xml element
        [XmlElement("status")]
        public string Status { get; set; }

        //should come from the "message" xml element (in our example - "OK")
        [XmlElement("message")]
        public string Message { get; set; }

        //should come from the "id" xml element (in our example - "f8d3eea1cbf6771a4bb02af3fb15253e")
        public string ResponseID
        {
            get
            {
                return SMSMessage.Result.ResponseID;
            }
        }

        //should be created from the results/result element - ignore flash, replace, report and concat elements for now.
        [XmlElement("results")]
        public SMSMessage SMSMessage { get; set; }
    }
}

Here is the other class (Result) - I want to get rid of this, so only the 2 previously mentioned classes remain

using System.Xml.Serialization;

namespace XMLSerializationHelp
{
    [XmlRoot("result")]
    public class Result
    {
        [XmlElement("account")]
        public string AccountNumber{ get; set; }

        [XmlElement("to")]
        public string To { get; set; }

        [XmlElement("from")]
        public string From { get; set; }

        [XmlElement("message")]
        public string Message { get; set; }

        [XmlElement("id")]
        public string ResponseID { get; set; }
    }
}

I don't want SMSMessage to be aware of the SMSSendingResponse - as this will be handled by a different part of my application
