Xml Serialization vs. "True" and "False"
Based on another stack overflow question you can do:
public class MySerilizedObject{ [XmlIgnore] public bool BadBoolField { get; set; } [XmlElement("BadBoolField")] public string BadBoolFieldSerialize { get { return this.BadBoolField ? "True" : "False"; } set { if(value.Equals("True")) this.BadBoolField = true; else if(value.Equals("False")) this.BadBoolField = false; else this.BadBoolField = XmlConvert.ToBoolean(value); } }}
Instead of using True or False, use 0 or 1. It will work for Boolean.
You could read that value as a string into a string field, then have a readonly bool field that had an if statement in it to return bool true or false.
For example (using c#):
public bool str2bool(string str){ if (str.Trim().ToUpper() == "TRUE") return true; else return false;}And you can use it in the template:
<xsl:if test="user:str2bool($mystr)">
