XmlNode adds NamespaceURI

[Vivek]

Hello,

I wish to copy an XmlNode in a string variable from a XmlDocument object.
But as I takeout this XmlNode, it adds the NamespaceURI. Why ? Could
somebody please help me ?

node.OuterXml serializes a node to a string.

Well why not? The namespaceURI is an essential part of any element or
attribute node, just like the local name to identify the node correctly.
If serialization would not declare namespaces then it would not work
correctly.

OK. But I want to deserialize this node with serializer.deserialize. And it
gives the exception that "<Nodename xmlns="thisNamespace"> was not expected.

Provide some more details on the .NET types used, the serialization
attributes you have and why/how you get (serialize?) the node first to
have the wrong namespace.

Here is the code :
try
{
// serialise to object
XmlSerializer serializer = new
XmlSerializer(typeof(childactivitiesactivity)); //I use
childactivitiesactivity in place of "child" to get only this branch
sreader = new StringReader(node); // read xml data
reader = new XmlTextReader(sreader); // create reader
// convert reader to object
facture =
(childactivitiesactivity)serializer.Deserialize(re ader);
}
catch
{
throw new InvalidOperationException();
}
finally
{
if (sreader != null) sreader.Close();
if (reader != null) reader.Close();
}

the xml file looks like this,

<child>
<profile></profile>
<adress></adress>
<activities>
<activity></activity>
<activity></activity>
</activities>
</child>

I have created the classes with xsd.exe. It has created a table of
activities[] to fill up with activity nodes. While I deserialize, it gives a
table activities with dimensions=0. As I found, on internet that its a bug
of .net, I wanted to fetch the table like the code as above, i.e., passing a
table of "childactivitiesactivity" directly. now, I have started having a
doubt if ever I can deserialize this branch only instead of the whole tree.
Otherwise, I am thinking to use XmlDocument, if it does not work.

Please also post the class. Your sample XML probably has a namespace
declaration too right? So try adding an
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlRoot(Namespace="thisNa mespace")]attribute on
your class. Then the serializer should be happy.

Sorry for the delay. Here is the code for this class, which I created with
xsd.exe from XSD file.
