DeSerialization for circular reference entities

Question

i have an xml and want to deserialize object. below is the xml

 

<school>

<students>

<stundent>

<name>James</name>

<student>

<name>Jason</name>

<student>

<name>Daniel</name>

</student>

</student>

</student>

</students>

</school>

 

Entity design:

 

[CollectionDataContract]

public class school

{

[XmlElement]

[DataMember]

public students students{get;set;}

}

[DataContract]

[Serializable]

[XmlType(TypeName="students")]

public class stundents{

[XmlElement]

[DataMember]

public student student{get;set;}

}

[DataContract]

[Serializable]

[XmlType(TypeName="student")]

public class student

{

public string name{get;set;}

}

 

 

I have used IsReference=true but did not get the expected result.
