About the XML to C# Class Generator

When working with legacy APIs, SOAP services, or configuration files in C#, you often need to deserialize XML data into strongly-typed C# objects. This tool automates the process of creating those C# classes based on a sample XML string.

Why is this useful?

  • Saves Time: Manually writing C# classes and decorating them with XmlElement or XmlAttribute attributes to match an XML schema is time-consuming and error-prone.
  • Handles Complexity: The tool correctly infers properties from XML elements and attributes, and it handles nested objects and lists of objects.
  • Improves Code Quality: By using strongly-typed classes, you get the benefits of IntelliSense, compile-time type checking, and cleaner code when using C#'s XmlSerializer.
