Destroy custom SOAP / XML for objects

Question

I have xml / soap from the shares webservice call:

<GetAllUserCollectionFromWeb xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/directory/">
<Users>
    <User ID="ID" Sid="ID" Name="XXX" LoginName="XXX" Email="XXX" Notes="" IsSiteAdmin="False" IsDomainGroup="False" Flags="0" /> 
    <User ID="ID" Sid="ID" Name="XXX" LoginName="XXX" Email="XXX" Notes="" IsSiteAdmin="False" IsDomainGroup="False" Flags="0" /> 
    <User ID="ID" Sid="ID" Name="XXX" LoginName="XXX" Email="XXX" Notes="" IsSiteAdmin="False" IsDomainGroup="False" Flags="0" /> 
    <User ID="ID" Sid="ID" Name="XXX" LoginName="XXX" Email="XXX" Notes="" IsSiteAdmin="False" IsDomainGroup="False" Flags="0" /> 
    <User ID="ID" Sid="ID" Name="XXX" LoginName="XXX" Email="XXX" Notes="" IsSiteAdmin="False" IsDomainGroup="False" Flags="0" /> 
    <User ID="ID" Sid="ID" Name="XXX" LoginName="XXX" Email="XXX" Notes="" IsSiteAdmin="False" IsDomainGroup="False" Flags="0" /> 
    <User ID="ID" Sid="ID" Name="XXX" LoginName="XXX" Email="XXX" Notes="" IsSiteAdmin="False" IsDomainGroup="False" Flags="0" /> 
</Users>

I want to deserialize this into the List <> of this object:

public class Person
{
    public string ID { get; set; }
    public string Sid { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public string LoginName { get; set; }
    public string Email { get; set; }
    public string Notes { get; set; }
    public string IsSiteAdmin { get; set; }
    public string IsDomainGroup { get; set; }
    public string Flags { get; set; }
}

I tried to use xpath but it does not work!

        XDocument result = XDocument.Parse(e.Result.ToString());
        IEnumerable<XElement> ele = result.XPathSelectElements("/def:GetAllUserCollectionFromWeb/def:Users/def:User");

Error:

Namespace Manager or XsltContext needed. This query has a prefix, variable, or user-defined function.

What is wrong or how can I solve the problem?

Answer 1

Add a namespace manager to your query.

XDocument result = XDocument.Parse(e.Result.ToString());

XmlNamespaceManager nsManager = new XmlNamespaceManager(new NameTable());
XNamespace namespace = result.Root.GetDefaultNamespace();
nsManager.AddNamespace("def", namespace.NamespaceName);

IEnumerable<XElement> ele = result.XPathSelectElements("/def:GetAllUserCollectionFromWeb/def:Users/def:User", nsManager);

You can use the XSD.exe tool to reverse engineer a proxy class from XML. You can also specify the type of collection or edit the generated class.

:

        result = XDocument.Parse(e.Result.ToString());

        XmlNamespaceManager nsManager = new XmlNamespaceManager(new NameTable());
        XNamespace ns = result.Root.GetDefaultNamespace();
        nsManager.AddNamespace("def", ns.NamespaceName);
        IEnumerable<XElement> users = result.XPathSelectElements("/def:GetAllUserCollectionFromWeb/def:Users/def:User", nsManager);

        foreach (XElement u in users)
        {
            persons.Add(new Person()
            {
                ID = u.Attribute("ID").Value,
                LoginName = u.Attribute("LoginName").Value
            });
        }
