  There is an error in XML document (1, 2)

  Dec 04, 2012 08:19 AM|LINK

  Hi,

  How do we create a myclass.cs based on a myxml.xml file. I try this using XMLSerializer with XMLReader and Memory stream but getting one error all the time. 'There is an error in XML document (1, 2).'

  //Example:1
  XmlReader xr = XmlReader.Create(new StringReader(@"C:\SOtest.xml"));
  XmlTextReader xtr = new XmlTextReader(new StringReader(@"C:\SOtest.xml"));
  XmlSerializer serializer2 = new XmlSerializer(typeof(SWIFTWebReference.ApplSpcfc));
  SWIFTWebReference.ApplSpcfc resultingMessage = (SWIFTWebReference.ApplSpcfc)serializer2.Deserialize(xtr); //There is an error in XML document (1, 2).
  
  //Example:2
  XmlSerializer xmlSerializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(SWIFTWebReference.ApplSpcfc));
  FileStream inStream = File.OpenRead(@"C:\SOtest.xml");
  MemoryStream storeStream = new MemoryStream();
  storeStream.SetLength(inStream.Length);
  inStream.Read(storeStream.GetBuffer(), 0, (int)inStream.Length);
  storeStream.Position = 0;
  ap = (SWIFTWebReference.ApplSpcfc)xmlSerializer.Deserialize(storeStream); //There is an error in XML document (1, 2).

  It may be that your class does not correctly match your XML. i.e. it's trying to deserialize the xml into a class that doesn't correctly match the XML schema.

  To make sure that your class is extablished correctly for your XML file, I like to use a tool from Microsoft xsd.exe, heres the like: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/x6c1kb0s(v=vs.71).aspx

  This is really helpful, where you take your schema and then following the instruction on their site, it generates the cs class from the schema. It's super simple.

  If you don't have a schema file (.xsd) of your xml, the simply open it in visual studio go to the XML menu on top -> create schema and voila, you have a schema. Save it and us it as Microsoft describes.

  Good luck

  Hello,

  Your xml file content doesn't match your existing model classes. So please have this sample:

  namespace CSharp
  {
      public class Student
      {
          public int Id { get; set; }
      }
      class Program
      {
          static void Main(string[] args)
          {
            //Serialize into a file
              XmlSerializer xs = new XmlSerializer(typeof(Student));
              xs.Serialize(new FileStream("c:\\try.xml",FileMode.OpenOrCreate), new Student { Id = 88888 });
              
              //Deserialize from the file
              xs = new XmlSerializer(typeof(Student));
              Student s = (Student)xs.Deserialize(new FileStream("c:\\try.xml",FileMode.OpenOrCreate));
              Console.WriteLine(s.Id);
          }
      }
  }
