Question

        [XmlIgnore()]
        public List<MyObject> ListMyObjects = new List<MyObject>();
        public List<string> MyProperty
        {
            get
            {
                List<string> list = new List<string>();
                foreach (MyObject obj in ListMyObjects)
                    list.Add(obj.Name);
                return list;
            }
            set
            {
                foreach (string name in value)
                    ListMyObjects.Add(new MyObject(name));
            }
        }

Why is MyPropery not serializing? I am using Xml Serializer.

Answer 1

Somebody please format my code, it isn’t formating on iPad.

Please try this,

       

public string[] MyProperty
        {
            get
            {
                List<string> list = new List<string>();
                foreach (MyObject obj in ListMyObjects)
                    list.Add(obj.Name);
                return list.ToArray();
            }
            set
            {
                foreach (string name in value)
                    ListMyObjects.Add(new MyObject(name));
            }
        }
