Parsing XML files by creating an object model
I have always preferred to use XSD.exe / VS.Net to create schema, generate classes from schema, deserialize XML file in object tree to parse XML file. [Well, most of my requirements so far have made this the perfect choice.
I have a crib: the class names generated by XSD.exe are weird, meaning XSD.exe tends to keep them unique by concatenating all the previous tag names in the test.
Is there a way to tweak this? Or perhaps a tool to run on top of this?
My motive is to keep the auto-generated code intact.
Thoughts?
It looks like the circuit is autogenerating which is causing the problem. I used the generation part of the XSD.exe class and the class was usually fine.
If the schema is auto-generated, it will probably need a little manual tweak to fix the crazy node names.
I'm really starting to want an easy way to change the output of xsd.exe without resorting to the codedom hack ... it seems like a project that just "has to happen" ...
