ADO.NET's WriteXML has BUG!!

I have a dataset which contains two tables, one is master and another is
child table with a relation join between tables.

When I use DataSet.WriteXML, it shows as:

<aDataSet>
<MasterTable ID="1" ............... />
<ChildTable ID="1" .................. />
...
</aDataSet>

It is not my expected (which used in DataSet.WriteXML on .NET 1.1) as:

<aDataSet>
<MasterTable ID="1" ............... >
<ChildTable ID="1" .................. />
...
</MasterTable>
</aDataSet>

I think it is one BUG!!

ABC,

This newsgroup is not for reporting Bugs

By the way in my opinion is this no Bug in the Microsoft WriteXML but in
your program, there is a property to set it in the way that is wanted.

However I don't like those persons who want to shout on Internet that
Microsoft programmers have made bugs while they did not, therefore have a
search yourself for that.

Hi there,

I don't think this is a bug.
DataSet isn't a hierarchical structure - it is a container for tables that
might be referenced.
What if child table contains a reference to master table? How would xml then
look like?

If use .NET 1.1, the writeXml outcome like-as tree structure to display tag
and values.
But, if use .NET 2.0, the outcome like-as two tables list.
