1. xml deserialization generic method

.net's xmldocument class has load() method accepts stream

as see it, need provide stream it

 xmldocument doc = xmldocument.load( readstream ); 

i can't see if it's static method , have no environment test right here, maybe need create instance of xmldocument first , run load() method (if it's not static)
