c# - Serialize read-only collection without implementing IXmlSerializable -

i have class :

[serializable] public class profile {     [xmlattribute]     private string[] permissions;     public string[] permissions     {         { return permissions; }         set { permissions = value; }     } } 

i want serialize in xml xmlserializer , have compliant fxcop. problem fxcop wants expose read-only collection properties, of course readonlycollection not serializable. not want implement ixmlserializable because it's painful. there other solution ?

options:

• you use list-of-string rather string-array; doesn't need setter, collection can manipulated directly
• you accept fxcop going generalisation, , generalisation not appropriate specific context - meaning: ignore fxcop in case
