Hello All,
I am using properties to create an xsd file at runtime for my destination
schema.
The output is consumed by a webservice and the databases are affected.
But i have a problem, in case some of the attributes are not passed from the
source I do not want those attributes to show up at destination output level
.
I want that the property shall not get initialized and the attribute shall
not get included in the destination xsd.
Followwing is the example for the property:

public string ProductKey
{
get { return _ProductKey; }
set { _ProductKey = value; }
}

Kindly help.... its urgent..
Vishal.

Hi Vizsal,

.net povides a bunch of attributes that you can use to specify how the
public fields are serialised. You could use the XmlIgnore attribute to
specify this:

public class Group
{
// The XmlSerializer ignores this field.
[XmlIgnore]
public string Comment;

// The XmlSerializer serializes this field.
public string GroupName;
}


More info in the Visual Stidio help file:

Thanks Alan,
But the problem is that I do not want to ignore the attribute all the time
rather then if it is not send by source then ignore it. Hope you have
understood,
Let me know,
Vishal.

Hi Vishal,

You have three options

1.  Write your own custom attribute
2.  Override the serialization and do it yourself
3.  Cry and go for a drink

The decision is yours!
