RestSharp - WP7 - Cannot deserialize XML to a list - windows-phone-7

Question

I use RestSharp in my Windows Phone 7.1 project.
I have a response in XML format here:
https://skydrive.live.com/redir.aspx?cid=0b39f4fbbb0489dd&resid=B39F4FBBB0489DD!139&parid=B39F4FBBB0489DD!103&authkey=!AOdT-FiS6Mw8v5Y
I tried to deserialize that response to a class:
public class fullWall
{
public _user user { get; set; }
public int numberOfFriend { get; set; }
public int numberOfPhoto { get; set; }
public List<timhotPhotos> timhotPhotos { get; set; }
public fullWall()
{
timhotPhotos = new List<timhotPhotos>();
}
}
All properties are ok except the timhotPhotos list, as you can see here:
timhotPhotos class:
public class timhotPhotos
{
public string id { get; set; }
public string title { get; set; }
public string description { get; set; }
public string url { get; set; }
public double width { get; set; }
public double height { get; set; }
public DateTime createdDate { get; set; }
public _user user { get; set; }
public int numOfComment { get; set; }
public int numOfRate { get; set; }
public int numOfView { get; set; }
public bool rated { get; set; }
}
Where am I wrong?

Answer 1

You'll have to change the default XML deserializer to the DotNetXmlDeserializer, like this:
RestClient client;
client.AddHandler("application/xml", new DotNetXmlDeserializer());
Then, add the XmlElement attribute to the List<timhotPhotos> timhotPhotos property like this:
public class fullWall
{
public _user user { get; set; }
public int numberOfFriend { get; set; }
public int numberOfPhoto { get; set; }
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElement()]
public List<timhotPhotos> timhotPhotos { get; set; }
public fullWall()
{
timhotPhotos = new List<timhotPhotos>();
}
}
Now it should work fine!
