<para>The <see cref="T:System.Xml.Serialization.SoapElementAttribute" /> class belongs to a family of attributes that controls how the <see cref="T:System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer" /> serializes or deserializes an object as encoded SOAP XML. The resulting XML conforms to section 5 of the World Wide Web Consortium (www.w3.org) document, "Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) 1.1". For a complete list of similar attributes, see <format type="text/html"><a href="93EE258C-9C0F-4A08-897C-C10DB7A00F91">[<topic://cpconAttributesThatControlSOAPEncodedSerialization>]</a></format>.</para>
<para>To serialize an object as an encoded SOAP message, you must construct the <see cref="T:System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer" /> using an <see cref="T:System.Xml.Serialization.XmlTypeMapping" /> created with the <see cref="M:System.Xml.Serialization.SoapReflectionImporter.ImportTypeMapping(System.Type)" /> method of the <see cref="T:System.Xml.Serialization.SoapReflectionImporter" /> class.</para>
<para>Apply the <see cref="T:System.Xml.Serialization.SoapElementAttribute" /> to a public field to direct the <see cref="T:System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer" /> to serialize the field as an encoded SOAP XML element.</para>

<para>The following table lists the XML Schema simple data types with their .NET equivalents.</para>
<para>For the XML Schema base64Binary and hexBinary data types, use an array of <see cref="T:System.Byte" /> structures, and apply a <see cref="T:System.Xml.Serialization.SoapElementAttribute" /> with the <see cref="P:System.Xml.Serialization.SoapAttributeAttribute.DataType" /> set to "base64Binary" or "hexBinary", as appropriate. For the XML Schema time and date data types, use the <see cref="T:System.DateTime" /> type and apply the <see cref="T:System.Xml.Serialization.SoapElementAttribute" /> with the <see cref="P:System.Xml.Serialization.SoapElementAttribute.DataType" /> set to "date" or "time".</para>
<para>For every XML Schema data type that is mapped to a string, apply the <see cref="T:System.Xml.Serialization.SoapElementAttribute" /> with its <see cref="P:System.Xml.Serialization.SoapElementAttribute.DataType" /> property set to the XML Schema type. Note that this does not change the serialization format, only the schema for the member.</para>
<block subset="none" type="note">
<para>The property is case-sensitive, so you must set it exactly to one of the XML Schema data types.</para>
</block>
<block subset="none" type="note">
<para>Passing binary data as an XML element is more efficient than passing it as an XML attribute.</para>
</block>

<para>The XML schema specification for structures allows an XML document to explicitly signal that an element's content is missing. Such an element contains the attribute xsi:null set to "1". For more information, see the World Wide Web Consortium (www.w3.org) specification named "XML Schema Part 1: Structures".</para>
<para>If the <see cref="P:System.Xml.Serialization.SoapElementAttribute.IsNullable" /> property is set to true, the xsi:null attribute is generated for class members that have been set to null. For example, if you set a field named MyStringArray to null, the <see cref="T:System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer" /> generates the following XML code.</para>
<code> <MyStringArray xsi:null = "1" /></code>
<para>If the <see cref="P:System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute.IsNullable" /> property is false, no XML element is generated.</para>
<block subset="none" type="note">
<para>You cannot apply the <see cref="P:System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute.IsNullable" /> property to a member typed as a value type because a value type cannot contain null.</para>
