Problem with serialization of svcutil synthetized classes
- by user295502
I used svcutil to generate classes to access the web service. I need to serialize them. The class is quite simple, here is how it looks
[System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThroughAttribute()]
[System.CodeDom.Compiler.GeneratedCodeAttribute("System.Runtime.Serialization", "3.0.0.0")]
[System.Runtime.Serialization.DataContractAttribute(Name="cosemAttributeDescriptor", Namespace="http://www.energiened.nl/Content/Publications/dsmr/P32")]
public partial class cosemAttributeDescriptor : object, System.Runtime.Serialization.IExtensibleDataObject
{
private System.Runtime.Serialization.ExtensionDataObject extensionDataField;
private ushort ClassIdField;
private string InstanceIdField;
private sbyte AttributeIdField;
public System.Runtime.Serialization.ExtensionDataObject ExtensionData
{
get
{
return this.extensionDataField;
}
set
{
this.extensionDataField = value;
}
}
[System.Runtime.Serialization.DataMemberAttribute(IsRequired=true)]
public ushort ClassId
{
get
{
return this.ClassIdField;
}
set
{
this.ClassIdField = value;
}
}
[System.Runtime.Serialization.DataMemberAttribute(IsRequired=true, EmitDefaultValue=false)]
public string InstanceId
{
get
{
return this.InstanceIdField;
}
set
{
this.InstanceIdField = value;
}
}
[System.Runtime.Serialization.DataMemberAttribute(IsRequired=true, Order=2)]
public sbyte AttributeId
{
get
{
return this.AttributeIdField;
}
set
{
this.AttributeIdField = value;
}
}
}
Now, the problem is I can't serialize the class. Here is the serialization code:
cosemAttributeDescriptor cAttrD = new cosemAttributeDescriptor();
cAttrD.ClassId = 3;
cAttrD.InstanceId = "0100010800FF";
cAttrD.AttributeId = 0;
DataContractSerializer dSer = new DataContractSerializer(typeof(cosemAttributeDescriptor));
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
XmlWriter xW = XmlWriter.Create(sb);
dSer.WriteObject(xW, cAttrD);
When I try to serialize the class, I get empty string. Any thoughts?
