A third party web service method returns an object which we try to serialize into a string. When I use the following method to serialize the object, I see some text "d3p1:", "d4p1" prefixed with each tag and attribute. What is this and why does it add these characters?
I verified the object is not having them and also the serialization method is working in other part of my code.
Code:
public static string SerializeObject(Object pObject)
{
MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream();
XmlSerializer xs = new XmlSerializer(pObject.GetType());
XmlTextWriter xmlTextWriter = new XmlTextWriter(memoryStream, Encoding.ASCII);
XmlQualifiedName[] blankNS = new XmlQualifiedName[] { new XmlQualifiedName("", "") };
XmlSerializerNamespaces blank = new XmlSerializerNamespaces(blankNS);
xs.Serialize(xmlTextWriter, pObject, blank);
memoryStream = (MemoryStream)xmlTextWriter.BaseStream;
UTF8Encoding encoding = new UTF8Encoding();
return encoding.GetString(memoryStream.ToArray());
}
