C# Xml Serialization - Serializing Property as Xml Text rather than an Element

I want to use default xml serializer to serialize data as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="gb2312"?>
<Entry EntryName="testentry1">
  <Properties>
    <Property Key="Property1">Value1</Property>
    <Property Key="Property2">Value2</Property>
  </Properties>
</Entry>

Rather than:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="gb2312"?>
<Entry EntryName="testentry1">
  <Properties>
    <Property Key="Property1">
      <Value>Value1</Value>
    </Property>
    <Property Key="Property2">
      <Value>Value2</Value>
    </Property>
  </Properties>
</Entry>

i.e. Value1 and Value2 as text rather than xml elements. Attribute XmlText can do the job!

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Xml.Serialization;

namespace XmlSerialization
{
    [Serializable]
    public class Entry
    {
        [XmlAttribute("EntryName")]
        public String Name { get; set; }
        [XmlArray("Properties")]
        [XmlArrayItem(Type = typeof(Property))]
        public Property[] Properties { get; set; }
    }

    [Serializable]
    public class Property
    {
        [XmlAttribute]
        public String Key { get; set; }
        [XmlText]
        public String Value { get; set; }
    }
}

A test program is as follows:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Xml.Serialization;

namespace XmlSerialization
{
    class Program
    {
        public static void Main(String[] args)
        {
            var entry1 = new Entry { Name = "testentry1", Properties = new Property[2] };
            entry1.Properties[0] = new Property()
            {
                Key = "Property1",
                Value = "Value1"
            };
            entry1.Properties[1] = new Property()
            {
                Key = "Property2",
                Value = "Value2"
            };

            var serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(Entry));
            var ns = new XmlSerializerNamespaces();
            ns.Add("", "");
            serializer.Serialize(Console.Out, entry1, ns);

            Console.ReadKey();
        }
    }
}


Also the following code removes the default name space:

var ns = new XmlSerializerNamespaces();
ns.Add("", "");
serializer.Serialize(Console.Out, entry1, ns);


Enjoy!
