I would like to handle the progress of binary serialization / deserialization of files to show a "loading" progress bar to the user but I cant't find a solution to do that.

how to serialize and deserialize an interface.

Can somebody post a GOOD and short example of serialization and deserialization of an object?Where it can produce an output to string and later be crypted for database purpose. ^.^
View 4 RepliesI am trying a simple object deserialization from an object encoded as a Base64 string, but I keep getting this weird error message. I've searched the forums for a solution but those who've experienced this all had different reasons for the error. The most logical solution, which is resetting the stream's position, did not work either. Here's my code:
Dim UnserializedObject As Object
Dim ser As New System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary.BinaryFormatter
Dim buffer As Byte()
[Code]....
To object oriented programming and programming with visual basic .net (vb 2008 express). regarding storing of information but not in a database. Someone mentioned using binary or xml serialization. So I researched that and after two long 8 hour days of messing around with binary serialization and about a dozen different code techniques i finally found one that seems to work. I created a module that serializes two variables and appends them into a file. The same module also has a sub that deserializes the information from the file and displays in a message box. If needed I'll provide the code later.
Really the problem I am having is that my message box only displays the first entry into the file and no other. So I can append any number of variables to the file but every time I call the subroutine in my module it only displays the first entry. How do you read all of the file? Also can I search the file for a particular value of a variable? The variables are codependent. The two variables are simply a date and a string representing a changing code that corresponds to that specific date. So I'd like to be able to say search for a date and retrieve both the date and the code.
However I don't have any idea how to do this. Also the messagebox.show method is probably not the best way to illustrate the information in the file but I'm still new and I'm not sure the best way to show all the info in the file. For instance if I wanted to show the entire contents or just the codes corresponding to certain dates. I know a database is probably the better answer but I've gotten this far without one, lol, I'm too stubborn to change now. Once I figure this out, I'll switch and try the same technique with a database.
I'm creating an application that uses several "multi-leveled" structures (structures within structures within structures....) to store reference data.
<Serializable()> Public Structure ControllerType
Public Attributes As ControllerAttributeType
Public Description As XCData
[Code]....
Three questions:
1) Is the "CloneObject" function solution able to be used in my application?
2) If it is, what is the fix for the XCData typed objects?
I am sending some data in a Serialized Structure across a TcpClient Stream to a Client. Now, sometimes the results get through, other times however, it does not. I've noticed this is true when the data I'm sending gets rather large. The server locks up at sending it and can't continue on.I'm sending this structure:
<Serializable()> Public Structure SearchResults
Public Property Results As String
Public Property Search As Boolean
End Structure
When Results gets kind of big (say, 411,000 characters in length), the server fails to send it, I get no error, and I end up timing out completely. If I connect via localhost", I get it instantly, so I know my code works. My problem is I've sent different structures with more data (2 million characters) way faster (nearly instantaneously) across the Internet (not localhost) in less than half a second.
Private Sub SendMessage(ByVal message As Object)
Try
SyncLock m_Client.GetStream
BinFormatter = New Binary.BinaryFormatter()
[code]....
I used the ideas from this post to create a custom collection of my custom class, so that I would be able to easily sort my collection. My project uses binary serialization to save everything (well the important stuff anyway) to a file. The problem is that my custom collection now breaks the serialization.I can't seem to figure out how to get the custom collection to serialize![code]
View 10 RepliesI need to avoid serializing an Event class member because when the event is handled by an object that is not marked as Serializable the serialization will fail.
I tried using the NonSerialized attribute on the Event class member but it fails to compile. This line of code:<NonSerialized()> Public Event PropertyValueChanged()
produces the following error: Attribute 'NonSerializedAttribute' cannot be applied to
'PropertyValueChanged' because the
attribute is not valid on this
declaration type.
Public Event PropertyValueChanged() ' compiles but needs the extra handling described below
Is there another way to avoid serializing Event members? This is not a problem if the event is not handled and I can work around it by cloning the objects (and ignoring the event) before serializing them. Just wondering if there is a better way.
i am studying and now working with Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition. I am working on my project regarding "Serialization". I wanna to start my working with "System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary" namespace because i am working on serialization project. I know by default IDE dosen't import it. So i went to add it in my project at "Add reference dialog" but i still unable to find out this namespace.

View 2 RepliesI've been using XML serialization for a while, and today I realized something really odd. If I have a new line right after a "dot" (.), when i deserialize, I lose the dot. Has anyone ever had this happen to them? The following is my serialization code:

I have two experimental web services. One is an asmx contained within a .net web application. The other is a WCF service library being invoked from the web application.The asmx basically does everything I need, but I think WCF would be better, except that it doesn't do anything as I would expect after fiddling with the asmx service.For example, the same method behaves differently in each:
' ASMX
<WebMethod(BufferResponse:=True, EnableSession:=False)>
Function Test(aObject as Object) as Object
' object will have been successfully serializaed into a dictionary

Some code first..this is how i deserialize..This part works.
Dim rdr As XmlReader = XmlReader.Create(New System.IO.StringReader(Replace(prestr, "><", ">" & vbCrLf & "<")))
Dim serialize As XmlSerializer = New XmlSerializer(GetType(ItemLookupResponse))
Dim myProduct As ItemLookupResponse = New ItemLookupResponse
myProduct = CType(serialize.Deserialize(rdr), ItemLookupResponse)
I have a Child class which uses DataContractSerialization and raises a Changed event when its Name property is set.
<DataContract()>
Public Class Child
Public Event Changed()
The Parent class is serialzed and deserialized and all the data (including the Child) is saved and resored as expected.However, after deserialization, the Changed event is never raised!I know the deserialization process bypasses class constructors, but shouldn't the event be initialized?Is it possible to serialize/deserialize the Event?Is there a way to initialize the event in the OnDeserialzed method of the Child rather than the Parent (see below)?
(1) Add a constructor to the Child class which takes an instance of itself as an argument.
(2) Add an OnDeserialized method to the Parent class which creates a New instance of the Child class based on the deserialzed instance of the Child class.
<OnDeserialized()>
Private Sub OnDeserializedMethod(ByVal Context As StreamingContext)
Child = New Child(Child)
End Sub
Now the Changed event is raised as expected.
Coming up against a brick wall with sending items over the network using sockets. I'm using Chilkat rather than the built in TCP Client / listener but thats not the issue. From point a I send through a string converted to base64 as below

I am not seeing what I am doing wrong. To see what was being done, I changed the constructor values to "TEST", after the XML gets read in (I verified what the XML is), the class values are still stuck to "TEST". Any more Ideas? I am doing this process already in another class that works fine, neither me nor some co-workers could find the difference.[code]...
View 1 RepliesI am having problems deserializing the response message I receive from the proxy class I created through WSDL.exe. I believe the problem lies in the fact that I am using XmlArrayItem, which has nested items within.Instead of getting:

I have the following code, where I am trying to use returned JSON data, deserialize it, and return 1 part of that data back to the user.

I don't understand how to deserialize into the Item class, then how to get the data back out.

View 1 RepliesI have a filesystemwatcher which place files in a queue when they are created. From the queue the files are further processed (xml into SQL database).
The mechanism works fine, but I want to add a progress bar to follow the progress of the files in the queue: processing 1 of 10......2 of 10......3 of 10 etc.For testing, I created a batch file to simulate the creation of files, so the filesystemwatcher can to his work and place the files in the queue. When I tell the batchfile to simulate the creation of 20 files, I see that the amount of files in the queue change. For example;
