Serialized XML does not validate against the XSD

[Muhlig]

Hi there,

I am using the xsd.exe tool on a set of XSD files to generate object classes. When I later serialize the object classes to XML, the XML is not valid when validating against the XSD.

One of the generated classes has the following property:

[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute("Add" , typeof(Child[]))]
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute("Dele te", typeof(long[]))]
public object Item
{
get
{
return this.childField;
}
set
{
this.childField = value;
}
}


When Xml-serializing the object the resulting XML is something like this:

...
<Add>
<Child>
(the Child data as XML)
</Child>
<Child>
(the Child data as XML)
</Child>
</Add>

or...

<Delete>
<long>
(a number)
</long>
<long>
(a number)
</long>
</Delete>

The schema expect the <Child> and <long> elements to be named <Data>

The XSD-files are provided by the customer and therefore cannot be changed, so I planned to override the serialization using XmlAttributeOverrides. I just can't figure out, how to setup the override to make it happend.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
