serialize an object to XML by using Visual C#

Create a CS file: person.cs

define a class called: public class clsPerson

    {

        public string FirstName;

        public string MI;

        public string LastName;

 }

and adding info for a new instance using xml serializer to xml file 

code:

 

        static void Main(string[] args)

        {

            clsPerson p = new clsPerson();

            p.FirstName = “Alex”;

            p.MI = “A”;

            p.LastName = “Price”;

         System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer x = new System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer(p.GetType());

            x.Serialize(Console.Out, p);

            Console.WriteLine();

            Console.ReadLine();

}

The result truns out to be a XML file with all the person informaion i just typed in. .. 

Here, just the basic tutorial about  XML serialize, we can use Arraylist and transfer a set of data into XML file , i hope..
