StratML 1.0 XML Data Binding - Nuget packge LiquidTechnologies.XmlObjects.StratML1-0
Strategy Markup Language (StratML)
StratML is planned to be a standardized XML template and vocabulary for strategic plans, performance plans and performance reports in alignment with policies and standards. This standard will enable the sharing, referencing, indexing, discovery, linking, reuse and analysis of the elements of strategic plans including goal and objective statements. While the initial focus of StratML has been on the US Federal Government, it is believed that private organizations of all sizes will find value in the use of StratML as they draft planning documents.

|
- 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.
