Inherited Members

Remarks

This static class extends HttpRestClient with methods tailored for handling HTTP requests and responses involving XML data. It facilitates the sending and receiving of XML content by abstracting the complexities of serialization and deserialization of XML to and from .NET objects.

Methods

AcceptXml(HttpRestClient, DataContractSerializerSettings?)

Configures the HttpRestClient to accept XML responses by adding or updating a XmlContentDeserializer in its response deserializers collection.

public static XmlContentDeserializer AcceptXml(this HttpRestClient client, DataContractSerializerSettings? settings = null)

Parameters

client HttpRestClient

The HttpRestClient instance to configure.

settings DataContractSerializerSettings

The DataContractSerializerSettings to use for deserializing XML responses. if null, default settings will be used.

Returns

XmlContentDeserializer

The XmlContentDeserializer used for XML content deserialization.

Remarks

If the client already has a XmlContentDeserializer, this method updates its options with the provided settings. Otherwise, it adds a new XmlContentDeserializer with the specified options to the client's response deserializers.

GetXmlSerializerSettings(HttpRestClient)

Retrieves the settings used by the HttpRestClient when serializing payloads as XML.

public static DataContractSerializerSettings? GetXmlSerializerSettings(this HttpRestClient client)

Parameters

client HttpRestClient

The HttpRestClient instance to query.

Returns

DataContractSerializerSettings

The DataContractSerializerSettings if set; otherwise, null.
