Sorry in excitment i made some mistake in the code in case if you
haven't already figured it out :)
using System;
using System.Xml;
using System.IO;
using System.Xml.Serialization;
namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
[Serializable()]
public class tResponseGeneralInfo
{
public long ProfileNumber;
public bool ProfileNumberSpecified;
}
class Class1
{
[STAThread]
static void Main(string[] args)
{
tResponseGeneralInfo obj = new
tResponseGeneralInfo();
obj.ProfileNumber = 23;
XmlDocument oXmlDoc = new XmlDocument();
oXmlDoc.Load(m_Serialize(obj));
//Print OXmlDoc's inner XML;
System.Console.WriteLine(oXmlDoc.InnerXml);
}
private static MemoryStream m_Serialize(object obj)
{
try
{
XmlSerializer serializer = new
XmlSerializer(obj.GetType());
MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();
serializer.Serialize(ms, obj);
ms.Position = 0;
return ms;
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
return null;
}
}
}
}
thanks
