Known Bugs

Under some circumstances it is possible that a generated class contains an item of some type as well as a list of that type. In such a case it will be necessary to remove the redundant item manually. Here an example.

Source XML

<LabelCollection>
  <Label>Business</Label>
</LabelCollection>

...

<LabelCollection>
  <Label>Fax</Label>
  <Label>Business</Label>
</LabelCollection>

Generated Class

[XmlRoot("LabelCollection")]
public class LabelCollection
{
  [XmlElement("Label")]
  public Label Label { get; set; } // Must be removed manually.

  [XmlElement("Label")]
  public List<Label> Labels { get; set; }
}

The reason behind, the generator is unable at the moment to distinguish between item types and a list of items of the same type.
