Deserializing classes from XML generated using XSD.exe
- by heap
I have classes generated (using xsd.exe) from an .xsd that I can serialize just fine, but when I try and deserialize it, I get the error:
{"<XMLLanguages xmlns='http://tempuri.org/XMLLanguages.xsd'> was not expected."}
I've searched for a couple of hours and found most peoples problems lie in not declaring namespaces in their xsd/xml, not defining namespaces in their classes, etc, but I can't find a solution for my problem.
Here are code snippets for the relevant classes.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xs:schema id="SetupData"
targetNamespace="http://tempuri.org/XMLLanguages.xsd"
elementFormDefault="qualified"
xmlns="http://tempuri.org/XMLLanguages.xsd"
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
>
<xs:element name="XMLLanguages">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="Tier" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="L" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded" type="Language"/>
</xs:sequence>
<xs:attribute name="TierID" type="xs:int"/>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
<xs:complexType name="Language">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="LangID" type="xs:int"/>
<xs:element name="Tier" type="xs:int"/>
<xs:element name ="Name" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:sequence>
<xs:attribute name ="PassRate" type="xs:int"/>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:schema>
And the class:
/// <remarks/>
[System.CodeDom.Compiler.GeneratedCodeAttribute("xsd", "4.0.30319.1")]
[System.SerializableAttribute()]
[System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThroughAttribute()]
[System.ComponentModel.DesignerCategoryAttribute("code")]
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlTypeAttribute(Namespace = "http://tempuri.org/XMLLanguages.xsd")]
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlRootAttribute(Namespace = "http://tempuri.org/XMLLanguages.xsd", IsNullable = false)]
public partial class XMLLanguages
{
private List<XMLLanguagesTier> tierField;
/// <remarks/>
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute("Tier")]
public List<XMLLanguagesTier> Tiers {
get {
return this.tierField;
}
set {
this.tierField = value;
}
}
}
And a the line in XML causing the error:
<XMLLanguages xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns="http://tempuri.org/XMLLanguages.xsd">
