serialization XML problem

[andrewcw]

There is an error in XML document (1, 2).
I used XML spy to create the XML and XSD. When I asked to
have the XML validated it said it was OK.

I used the .net SDK to generate the class. I have done
this before but this time I have no idea why I am getting
the error. Any ideas ?? THANKS !

Hi Andrew,

Firstly, let me confirm: The XML deserialization is giving you this error right? What is the type that you are sending to the XMLSerializer?
Since the root is qcstatus, sending that should work. It did when I tried. I got the same error you did if I set the type as 'manual' instead.
Maybe that's what's going wrong?...

So, doing the below on your xml file should work:

XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(qcstatus.qcsttatus));
string fileName = @"c:\qcstatus.xml";
FileStream fs = new FileStream(fileName, FileMode.Open);
qcstatus.qcsttatus results = (qcstatus.qcsttatus)serializer.Deserialize(fs);
fs.Close();

(remember to put try catch blocks for File exception or deserialization exception)

HTH.
Thanks
Swati
