Creating a model class for XML

Creating a model class for XML - c#

How to create a model class for the below xml.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<NOTIFICATION>
<NOTIF_HEADER>
<SOURCE>FCDB</SOURCE>
<MSGID>585995798502256</MSGID>
<TXN_ID>UTP</TXN_ID>
</NOTIF_HEADER>
<NOTIF_BODY>
<UserDetail>
<USER_NAME>Mr Customer</USER_NAME>
<USER_EMAIL>MrCustomer#email.com</USER_EMAIL>
<USER_MO>0500000007</USER_MO>
</UserDetail>
<CAS_Token>
<PASS>
<![CDATA[[PASS]]]>
</PASS>
<GEMALTO>N</GEMALTO>
</CAS_Token>
</NOTIF_BODY>
</NOTIFICATION>
I want to serialize this xml. For that I tried to create model class, but didn't worked.

Here is your class:

I get the following error:
System.InvalidOperationException: 'There is an error in XML document (33, 14).'
Inner Exception
InvalidOperationException: The specified type was not recognized:
name='genericDrug', namespace='http://webservice.sirkb/', at http://www.govtalk.gov.uk/CM/envelope'>.
I have noticed from this thread that if I remove xsi:type="ns2:genericDrug" from the XML file I can deserialize the XML. I can't modify the XML because it is the response I get for the request. It is not a good practice to do a string replace on XML, so I am looking for a better solution.
This might be a duplicate question from this one, but since I am not able to solve the problem I am posting it again because it is difficult to get help in the comment section.
Based on the above question I have tried to change the annotation of public partial class returnDRUG
from
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlTypeAttribute(AnonymousType = true, Namespace = "http://www.govtalk.gov.uk/CM/envelope")]
to
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlTypeAttribute(Namespace = "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance", TypeName = "genericDrug")]
but still cant parse the XML.
The parsing code is simple
var deserializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(GovTalkMessage));
TextReader textReader = new StreamReader("drug.xml"); //saved response in file for simplicity
GovTalkMessage response;
response = (GovTalkMessage)deserializer.Deserialize(textReader);
textReader.Close();
What can I do to deserialize the XML in the GovTalkMessage object?

You need to change the decoration on the returnDRUG class
from this
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlTypeAttribute(AnonymousType = true, Namespace = "http://www.govtalk.gov.uk/CM/envelope")]
public partial class returnDRUG
to this
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlTypeAttribute(TypeName = "genericDrug", Namespace = "http://webservice.sirkb/")]
public partial class returnDRUG
Specify it's type as "genericDrug", and the crucial bit, correct it's namespace to "http://webservice.sirkb/"
I've just used you code and managed to de-serialize using this change.
The explanation is that if you take a look at the definition of DRUG you can see that it's type is defined as "genericDRUG" in the namespace alias "ns2"
<DRUG xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="ns2:genericDrug">
if you look at the definition of the ns2 alias you can see that it's "http://webservice.sirkb/"
<ns2:getGenericDrugsResponse xmlns:ns2="http://webservice.sirkb/">
Some addition to prevent default values for DRUG objects
Every property of the returnDrug class should have the namespace http://www.govtalk.gov.uk/CM/envelope.
The complete class should have the following form:
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlTypeAttribute(TypeName = "genericDrug", Namespace = "http://webservice.sirkb/")]
public partial class returnDRUG
{
private string dOSAGEField;
private ushort gENERIC_DRUG_IDField;

Manually populate object generated fom xsd in C#

Sorry, new to all this...
I have an XSD file which I used to create classes in C# using XSD.exe.
The challenge now is trying to figure out how to manually populate the object so I can then serialise to XML (I won't have a source XML file so I need to manually set the properties via an alternate source).
Below is a sample classes generated from the XSD file. I'm able to set the filesummary and debtor information but no idea how to set the debtorcontact information.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

The approach I took was to create a dataset classes using xsd.exe /d.
Once the data set classes were created
I initially populated the data table as follows just to get a better understanding of the data set structure:
NewDataSet newDataSet = new NewDataSet();
newDataSet.ReadXml("FileSummary.xml");

the above code is giving required value with a lot of additional attributes value and the code seems lengthy too. However, I need those 4 value. Please suggest any better solution.

UPDATED (2018-09-10)
I've updated this to get it easy to use.
Before I started, I decided that you probably wanted the possibility of longProps in the HTTPSamplerProxy section. It also made the coding (much) easier and cleaner. I've tested it without any longProps just to make sure it worked with the existing XML the way you'd expect.
The original process
The updates to the original description are italicized
What I did was to use the standard XSD.exe tool to take your source XML file (with an extra longProp in the HTTPSamplerProxy section) and create an XSD. Then I used XSD.exe again to create a (very ugly) C# file. At that point, the root of the whole mess is the TestPlan class. Here's what XSD.exe produced (updated - the only change to the newly-emitted XSD.exe code was a namespace declaration at the top):

The rest of this is mostly new
The code emitted by XSD.exe creates a set of partial classes. I extended the partial classes in a few ways in a separate source file. But, before I started, I declared an interface and a static worker class.
public interface IGrouping {
boolProp[] boolProp { get; }
stringProp[] stringProp { get; }
longProp[] longProp { get; }
Dictionary<string, bool?> BoolProperties { get; }
Dictionary<string, long?> LongProperties { get; }
Dictionary<string, string> StringProperties { get; }
}
and
public static class PropertyGrouper {
public static void GroupProperties(IGrouping itemToGroup) {
//has this been done before, if yes, return
if (itemToGroup.StringProperties.Count > 0 || itemToGroup.BoolProperties.Count > 0 || itemToGroup.LongProperties.Count > 0 ) {
return;
}
//otherwise
if (itemToGroup.boolProp != null) {
foreach (var bProp in itemToGroup.boolProp) {
var succeeded = bool.TryParse(bProp.Value, out var bValue);
itemToGroup.BoolProperties.Add(bProp.name, succeeded ? bValue : (bool?)null);
}
}
if (itemToGroup.longProp != null) {
foreach (var lProp in itemToGroup.longProp) {
var succeeded = long.TryParse(lProp.Value, out var lValue);
itemToGroup.LongProperties.Add(lProp.name, succeeded ? lValue : (long?)null);
}
}
if (itemToGroup.stringProp != null) {
foreach (var sProp in itemToGroup.stringProp) {
itemToGroup.StringProperties.Add(sProp.name, sProp.Value);
}
}
}
}
With those in place, I extended each of the XSD.exe-emitted classes. The TestPlan class was easy - I just added a typed property:
public partial class TestPlan {
[XmlIgnore]
public hashTree HashTree => Items[0] as hashTree;
}
The hashTreeThreadGroup and hashTreeHTTPSamplerProxy classes were extended in the same way (remember, I didn't name any of these classes, XSD.exe named them from your XML) . Each was declared to implement the IGrouping interface, and each got 3 dictionaries of properties (as required by IGrouping). The three arrays in the IGrouping interface were in the XSD-emitted code:
public partial class hashTreeThreadGroup : IGrouping {
[XmlIgnore]
public Dictionary<string, bool?> BoolProperties { get; } = new Dictionary<string, bool?>();
[XmlIgnore]
public Dictionary<string, long?> LongProperties { get; } = new Dictionary<string, long?>();
[XmlIgnore]
public Dictionary<string, string> StringProperties { get; } = new Dictionary<string, string>();
}
public partial class hashTreeHTTPSamplerProxy : IGrouping {
[XmlIgnore]
public Dictionary<string, bool?> BoolProperties { get; } = new Dictionary<string, bool?>();
[XmlIgnore]
public Dictionary<string, long?> LongProperties { get; } = new Dictionary<string, long?>();
[XmlIgnore]
public Dictionary<string, string> StringProperties { get; } = new Dictionary<string, string>();
}
Finally, I extended hashTree class. I added three typed properties, each with a null check to make things clean. The ThreadGroupItem and HttpSamplerProxyItem properties each get a call to PropertyGrouper.GroupProperties. The first time this is called, the properties in the XmlSerializer-created property arrays are copied into Dictionaries.
public partial class hashTree {
[XmlIgnore]
public hashTree HashTree {
get {
if (hashTree1 != null) {
return hashTree1[0] as hashTree;
} else {
return null;
}
}
}
[XmlIgnore]
public hashTreeThreadGroup ThreadGroupItem {
get {
if (ThreadGroup != null) {
var threadGroup = ThreadGroup[0]; // as hashTreeThreadGroup;
PropertyGrouper.GroupProperties(threadGroup);
return threadGroup;
} else {
return null;
}
}
}
[XmlIgnore]
public hashTreeHTTPSamplerProxy HttpSamplerProxyItem {
get {
if (HTTPSamplerProxy != null) {
var httpSamplerProxy = HTTPSamplerProxy[0];
PropertyGrouper.GroupProperties(httpSamplerProxy);
return httpSamplerProxy;
} else {
return null;
}
}
}
}
With that all in place, I ran the same code.
TestPlan result;
using (var stream = new FileStream("source.xml", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read)) {
var serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(TestPlan));
result = (TestPlan)serializer.Deserialize(stream);
}
This code is how I accessed your data with my first example.
var numThreadsParsed = long.TryParse((((XmlSerializeForm.hashTree)result.Items[0]).hashTree1[0].ThreadGroup[0].stringProp[1].Value), out var numThreads);
var httpSamplerPath = ((XmlSerializeForm.hashTree)result.Items[0]).hashTree1[0].hashTree1[0].hashTree1[0].HTTPSamplerProxy[0].stringProp[4].Value;
But, with the few simple additions I made (well, the code isn't that complicated, but getting it right was), accessing the properties is much cleaner:
string numThreadsParsed = result.HashTree.HashTree.ThreadGroupItem.StringProperties["ThreadGroup.num_threads"];
long? startTime = result.HashTree.HashTree.ThreadGroupItem.LongProperties["ThreadGroup.start_time"];
string httpSamplerPath = result.HashTree.HashTree.HashTree.HashTree.HttpSamplerProxyItem.StringProperties["HTTPSampler.path"];
bool? useKeepAlive = result.HashTree.HashTree.HashTree.HashTree.HttpSamplerProxyItem.BoolProperties["HTTPSampler.use_keepalive"];
There you go!

With external lib Cinchoo ETL - an open source library, you can grab the chosen node values easily as below
Define .NET type
public class TestPlan
{
[ChoXmlNodeRecordField(XPath = #"/ThreadGroup/stringProp[#name=""ThreadGroup.on_sample_error""]")]
public string NumThreads { get; set; }
[ChoXmlNodeRecordField(XPath = #"/ThreadGroup/stringProp[#name=""ThreadGroup.ramp_time""]")]
public int RampTime { get; set; }
[ChoXmlNodeRecordField(XPath = #"/hashTree/hashTree/HTTPSamplerProxy/stringProp[#name=""HTTPSampler.path""]")]
public string Path { get; set; }
[ChoXmlNodeRecordField(XPath = #"/hashTree/hashTree/HTTPSamplerProxy/stringProp[#name=""HTTPSampler.domain""]")]
public string Domain { get; set; }
}
Then deserialize the input xml using Cinchoo ETL as below
static void Main()
{
using (var p = new ChoXmlReader<TestPlan>("*** XML file path ***")
.WithXPath("/TestPlan/hashTree/hashTree")
)
{
foreach (var rec in p)
Console.WriteLine(rec.Dump());
}
}
Output:
-- ChoXmlReaderTest.Program+TestPlan State --
NumThreads: continue
RampTime: 1
Path: /v1/test/test?debug=false
Domain: www.abc.com/abc-service-api
Hope it helps.

Parsing xml in C#

I have the following xml doc that I am trying to parse:
<report>
<fruit name="Apple" count="5"/>
<vegetable name="Potato" count="2"/>
<vegetable name="Tomato" count="3"/>
<fruit name="Orange" count="0"/>
</report>
I have the following class to deserialize:
/// <remarks/>

[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlRootAttribute(Namespace = "", IsNullable = false)]
public partial class report
{
private object[] itemsField;

}
}
How can I iterate through the fruits and vegetables after it has been deserialized?
foreach (string name in instance.Items) // doesnt work

You can do this:
for(int i = 0; i < instance.Items.Length; i++)
{
object item = instance.Items[i];
if(item is reportFruit) {
// it is a fruit!!!
reportFruit fruit = (reportFruit)item;
}
if(item is reportVegetable) {
// it is not a fruit :'(
reportVegetable vegetable = (reportVegetable)item;
}
}

Adding information to an array within a class

I have converted some xml into classes using xsd and now I am having an issue getting some data into the array that exists in the class to add a list of items. I am trying to get the info into OrderItemsItem.
A bit stumped, any help appreciated (not really keen on making any changes to the classes if I can get away with it, convert to List<> etc) .
This is the code to add the info:
OrderItemsItem orderItemsItem = new OrderItemsItem();
orderItemsItem.CostCentre = "sfsdf";
orderItemsItem.DeliveryDate = "2014-01-05";
orderItemsItem.Fund = "G";
orderItemsItem.ExternalLineRef = "1";
orderItemsItem.ItemName = "dfss";
orderItemsItem.LineNo = "1";
orderItemsItem.ProdId = "dfsf";
orderItemsItem.Project = "";
orderItemsItem.QuantityOrdered = "2";
orderItemsItem.UnitCost = "10";
Order order = new Order();
OrderItemsItem [] items = {orderItemsItem};
order.Items.Item = items;
The Error I am receiving is happening on -> order.Items.Item = items;:
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance
of an object.
This is the Class:

Thank you

order.Items.Item = items
The error must be that some order among your orders have its Items collection null (and thus making it not possible to access its "Item" property).

My suspicion is that in your example order.Items is null - you will need to attach a debugger and examine the variables yourself to determine the root cause of your null ref. Ensure that the array is not null before working with it.
in your example you're overriding an element of an array. This will either replace the existing element (if it exists) or (I believe) throw an IndexOutOfBoundsException if it doesn't.
Arrays are generally for fixed lengths of data, ones which you don't append/remove data from frequently. Lists are a better collection to use as they have Add() and Remove() functions for specifically this reason.
It is possible to "append" to C# arrays
order.Items = Order.Items.Union(new Item[]{myNewItem}));
However it's not very nice and creates a new array by merging the old ones! My advice... make the collection a list!
