Is svcutil.exe a replacement for xsd.exe?

Question

I am using xsd.exe to generate some c# classes from a .xsd file. I ran into the same issue that is covered here and on other sites where xsd.exe generates Type[] arrays instead

Answer 1

Clarification

Andrew Hare's answer above will work, but the example command that jameswelle pasted just above his last section of code:

svcutil.exe /target:code /dataContractOnly /serializer:XmlSerializer /importXmlTypes /collectionType:System.Collections.Generic.List`1 Example.xsd

does not work because, as stated on MSDN, '. . .the /r and /ct switches for referencing types are for generating data contracts. These switches do not work when using XmlSerializer.'

HTH.
