Topic: Different Validation options

When you validate FHIR message do you use FhirXmlParser vs the SerializationUtil.XmlReaderFromXmlText? I get different results base on what I am using?
var HL7obj = new FhirXmlParser().Parse<PlanDefinition>(HL7FileData);
or
var reader = SerializationUtil.XmlReaderFromXmlText(HL7FileData);

You should always use the specialized FHIR XML/JSON deserializer classes in the .NET FHIR library.

@Michel Rutten you mean the SerializationUtil class?
Michel Rutten (Aug 29 2019 at 12:19):
Parse to ISourceNode (new):
FhirXmlNode.Parse(xml); FhirJsonNode.Parse(json);
Returns an ISourceNode instance.
You can call ToPoco() on the result to convert to a strongly typed class
Parse to PoCo (classic):
new FhirXmlParser().Parse<Patient>(xml); new FhirJsonParser().Parse<Patient>(json);
Returns a FHIR PoCo instance, in this example a Patient class.

For the FhirXmlParser, will it call the .Net XSD validator I have the EnableXsdValidation = true and it will not validate xhtml.

This bit in the documentation describes the different approaches: http://docs.simplifier.net/fhirnetapi/parsing.html
Let me know if you're missing something!
