pass structure containing list to WCF C#

Hi,

I have a doubt.


I have a structure containing an dynamic array.

[DataContract]
public struct Employee
{
    [DataMember]
    public string id;
    [DataMember]
    public string name;

    [DataMember]
    public float[] data;
}

I have a WCF web service which has a function named GetEmployees returns all employee details

[WebGet(UriTemplate = "/Employees")]
List<Employee> GetEmployees();

Service implementation as follows

public List<Employee> GetEmployees()
{
    List<Employee> employees = new List<Employee>{
        new Employee
        {
            id = "1",
            name = "Abc",
            data = new float{1.5f, 3.5f}
        },
        new Employee
        {
            id = "2",
            name = "def" ,
            data = new float{10.5f, 30.5f}
        }
}

And I used this service as follows...

var url = new Uri("http://localhost:34698/RestService.svc/Employees");
var request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
request.Method = "GET";

var response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();

List<Employee> retEmps;
var dataContractSerializer = new DataContractSerializer(typeof(List<Employee>));
 using (var responseStream = response.GetResponseStream())
 {
   retEmps = (List<Employee>)dataContractSerializer.ReadObject(responseStream);
 }
response.Close();

The Id and Name are getting properly, but the data is not getting properly...


Can anyone help me?????
