Extra Semicolon in Example

[gggustafson]

Type of issue

Code doesn't work

Description

In the example

// Construct an instance of the XmlSerializer with the type
// of object that is being deserialized.
var mySerializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(MySerializableClass));
// To read the file, create a FileStream.
using var myFileStream = new FileStream("myFileName.xml", FileMode.Open);
// Call the Deserialize method and cast to the object type.
var myObject = (MySerializableClass)mySerializer.Deserialize(myFileStream);

the semicolon at the end of the using statement causes the following myFileStream to be undefined
