dotnet xml:
How do I serialize a DateTime attribute to HH:MM:SS? I've tried this:

[XmlAttributeAttribute(AttributeName="time", DataType="time")]

But it is serialized as time="10:45:34.7031250+02:00". I would like it to
be plainly "10:45:34". I will not be doing any calculations on the time,
just record time of creation.

You can make your field(I assume, is where this attribute is attached to)
into a property and use a ToString of the DateTime to output whatever you
want.

private DateTime _ABC;

[XmlAttributeAttribute(AttributeName="time")]
public string DateTimeAttributeNamedABC
{
get
{
return _ABC.ToString("T");
}
set
{
_ABC = DateTime.Parse(value);
}
}

Something like that. I'm not sure about the setter. You probably need
something better there.

Hi,

maybe you should try to create a serializable Class where you will put a
reference of your DataTime object.
