I have a class that is serialized to a XML file. There are several properties that are rarely used but always created. If I delete them within the XML the deserialization still works, because they have the default value.
These unnecessary (bool) attributes make the XML harder to read.
Can I somehow tell C# to omit elements or attributes that still have default value?
Specify the DefaultValueAttribute, and if the value matches, it won’t be output.
