Title Body

First question on Stackoverflow (.Net 2.0): So I am trying to return an XML of a List with the following: public XmlDocument GetEntityXml() { StringWriter stringWriter = new StringWriter(); XmlDocument xmlDoc = new XmlDocument(); XmlTextWriter xmlWriter = new XmlTextWriter(stringWriter); XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(List<T>)); List<T> parameters = GetAll(); serializer.Serialize(xmlWriter, parameters); string xmlResult = stringWriter.ToString(); xmlDoc.LoadXml(xmlResult); return xmlDoc; } Now this will be used for multiple Entities I have already defined. Say I would like to get an XML of List<Cat> The XML would be something like: <ArrayOfCat> <Cat> <Name>Tom</Name> <Age>2</Age> </Cat> <Cat> <Name>Bob</Name> <Age>3</Age> </Cat> </ArrayOfCat> Is there a way for me to get the same Root all the time when getting these Entities? Example: <Entity> <Cat> <Name>Tom</Name> <Age>2</Age> </Cat> <Cat> <Name>Bob</Name> <Age>3</Age> </Cat> </Entity> Also note that I do not intend to Deserialize the XML back to List<Cat>
