Maddening working with .NET/.XSDs

[=?Utf-8?B?Y2FkYTAzMTA=?=]

Hey there,

Just starting out messing with XML in .NET. I'm just trying to read some
simple XML that I'm using to pass data structures between programs.
Something like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Chris>
<One>1</One>
<Two>2</Two>
</Chris>

So I create the above in a file, create a matching XSD in Visual Studio, and
use a FileStream and XmlSerializer to try and read the thing in. I always
get an error at (2,2) unless I make the 2nd line look like this:

<Chris xmlns="http://tempuri.org/Chris.xsd">

I'm presuming that it doesn't want to parse it because it's trying to match
this line in my auto-generated .CS file:

[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlRootAttribute(Namespac e="http://tempuri.org/Chris.xsd", IsNullable=false)]

Do I have to have this xmlns deal in that line or what?

Thanks!

You can simply use
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlRootAttribute]
or
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlRootAttribute(IsNullab le=false)]

Which version of xsd.exe are you using? When I generate a schema from a bit
of XML (although I typically leave out the <?xml?part), I get:
// This source code was auto-generated by xsd, Version=1.1.4322.2032.

[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlRootAttribute(Namespac e="", IsNullable=false)]
