XML Serializer Task

The XML Serializer Task accepts an XML document, which conforms to a user-specified schema (or DTD) and outputs an XML document consisting of a single root node that contains the entire input XML document as a string. This task is essentially the opposite of the XML Parser Task that accepts a single node containing the XML and breaks it out into a mappable XML document.

At runtime the task accepts an XML document that conforms to the input schema (the user-specified schema) and then serializes the input XML document into a String. It then outputs an XML document with a root element whose data is the string as constructed above.
