Financial Information eXchange (FIX)
The Financial Information eXchange ("FIX") Protocol is a series of messaging specifications for the electronic communication of trade-related messages. It has been developed through the collaboration of banks, broker-dealers, exchanges, industry utilities and associations, institutional investors, and information technology providers from around the world. These market participants share a vision of a common, global language for the automated trading of financial instruments.

- Create a new Visual Studio Project
- Add a reference to the nuget package @myModel.NugetID
-
Create an LxSerializer<> for your root element
- If the root element in your XML document is 'MyRoot' then the object generated to represent it should be called 'MyRootElm'*1
- Hint - In Visual Studio placing the caret within the code LxSerializer<MyRootElm> and pressing Alt-Shift-F10 will give you the option to add the appropriate using statement.
- Use the LxSerializer to read in the XML Document using the Deserialize method
- Setting a break point after this line will allow you to explore the structure of the object in the visual studio watch windows.
- Use the LxSerializer to write in the XML Document back out using the Serialize method
LxSerializer<ExamplePersonElm> serializer = LxSerializer<ExamplePersonElm>();
// Reading an XML file
ExamplePersonElm person = serializer.Deserialize("MyPersonData.xml");
foreach(ExampleFriendElm friend in person.Friends)
{
Console.Write("Name = " + friend.Name);
}
// Edit the objects
ExampleFriendElm newFriend = new ExampleFriendElm();
newFriend.Name = "Joe Blogs";
person.Friends.Add(newFriend);
// Write the new data out as XML
serializer.Serialize("MyNewPersonData.xml", person);

This video tutorial demonstrates the basic usage of the XML Objects tool, showing how to generate code from an XSD, read an XML document into the object model, modify the data and write out the XML.
