The format of the XML returned by a service can be customised by setting the following atttributes on the service class: • Indentation – uses to define the number of spaces worth of indentation for response elements; the default is 2. • UseIndentation – if set to true responses are formatted across multiple lines; if set to false a response is formatted as a single line; the default is true. • UseIntTag – if set to true integer values in responses are formatted as if set to false they are formatted as ; the default is false. • UseStringTag – if set to true string values in responses are formatted as ; if set to false they are formatted as simply the text contained by the element; the default is true. • XmlEncoding – this is used to specify the text encoding of responses. By default UTF-8 is used.
