Using The .NET Serializer To Serialize XML To A .NET Class?
Nov 9, 2010I have an XML file:

If a class is serialized and has events fired from it that are handled on a form you get the error "Form1 cannot be serialized" in c# you can use (to work around this):

I need to look at the properties of an object and I cannot instantiate this object in the proper state on my dev machine. I need my client to run some code on her machine, serialize the object in question to disk and then I can analyze the file.[code]...
View 2 Replieswhat is the fastest way to serialize and compress a class?
what are the consideration to be made when a long list of objects(classes) have to be serialized and compressed one after the other?
I'm trying to serialize this class:
<System.Serializable()> Public Class Person
Private _FirstName As String
Public Property FirstName() As String
[code]....
CustomLineCap does not have the SerializableAttribute applied to it. I want to add a property of this type to an object graph that is currently being serialized/deserialized with a BinaryFormatter. I tried switching to XML serialization but it has a bunch of extra requirements and I don't want to fool with that esp. since it's not my code; it's some open source I downloaded. If there's a way to get BinaryFormatter to ignore the property, that might work. I'd rather subclass it; I just don't know if that will work either.

I may or may not have Data for ReturnData and SetValue (one or both at a minimum). I am trying to let the serializer handle most of the formatting without having to check for empty sections and single-item arrays.
how can i serialize a class containing a public event + withevents child classes each containing a public event?
View 3 RepliesI am trying to serialize a class that contains a generic list, and I am finding it all works with the exception of the generic list property. That is to say the other properties are serialized fine and no error is produced.
I have in the past serialized an arraylist - but I thought it was possible to do a generic list in the same way.
Am I missing something or is it not possible to serialize/deserialize a generic list - I have read mixed comments on this..
The relevant parts of the class that gets serialized is defined as..
<XmlInclude(GetType(cConfigUser)), _
Serializable(), XmlRoot(ElementName:="Config")> _
Public Class cConfig

I have a issue in a serialization process. I'm trying to Serialize a part of a bigger class.
I've a Class named MyBigClass with contain many property and method, and some of them may not be Serializable.
And I'm trying to Serialize one property of the MyBigClass class, witch is a SortedList named SubClassXList defined as SortedList(Int32, ClassX)
My problem is when it is time to serialize the SortedList (SubClassXList) a error tell me that a Class (say Class B) could not be Serialized because it is not marked as "Serializable", but the Class B in question have nothing to do with the SubClassXList in question.
The only thing I could see, is that the Serialization method try to also Serialize the Main Class (MyBigClass).
Here is the method that I use to Clone a Object ClassX do have the attribute "Serializable()"
Public Function CloneObject(ByVal pObjectToSerialize As Object) As Object
' Create a memory stream and a formatter.
Dim ms As New IO.MemoryStream()

I need to be able to serialize a class into a string, and I know of 2 patterns:
1) (normal) Serialization pattern
2) Proxy Serialization pattern
I've read [URL] (the only website in google that talks about the proxy-serialization pattern) and still cant find the advantage or benefit of using this pattern. Could someone explain what exactly is the proxy serialization pattern, or rather exactly what problem does the proxy-serialization pattern solves that the normal-serialization pattern doesn't solve?
I'm trying to serialize the main class in my VB solution. I've added the Serializable attribute at the top of my class like so:
[code]...
I'm guessing this is because you can't serialize the form that is attached to the class or something, but I really don't know what I'm doing. Can I serialize all of the objects contained in my Form1 class somehow, without getting this error? I don't want to store any data about the form controls, I just need to save all the objects that I've defined at the top of the Form1 class.
I have a VB.NET singleton class which implements Serializable:

My problem is that I can't actually call .Serialize() on the instance of this class, like all of the examples online show. What am I doing wrong?

How best to manage multiple dat files for serializable objects of the same class. If one of my data files goes past a particular size, I want to create a new file. I then loop through both files when I do processing. Is there any easier way to do this and what's the best size to do this at in terms of performance?

This is for a web project so i have several classes that inherit from Web.UI.
I only want to serialize very particular properties (basically, only local properties)
I'm aware of the XMLIgnore property that can be placed on a property to ignore items, but this won't work in my context since that would require modifying a bunch of stuff that i really don't want to modify (and probably can't).
So how do i tell the xml serializer to ignore everything except for X and Y or tell it to seralize just X and Y?
i could just create my own xml in a string builder or something and if that's the only way, so be it. however i'm looking for a method that will employ the built in XML stuff.
I am trying to read in an XML document, add a record with a tag for the filename and write to a different XML document.I have been told I must use serialization.

View 1 RepliesI need a way to transfer a compiled assembly from client to the server and be able to store that in the database or in a file in such a way that I can grab those bytes on the "to" side and re-load assembly. Is there a way to do it. To clarify, I have a winforms application that will generate code and compile it based on some metadata. Now I need to be able to transfer this to a web site and store it somehow, but I don't want a dll (because it can be de-compiled). I would then have a "server" program on the to side, that would load this in memory. I could just transfer encrypted source code, but I thought I could just transfer compiled assembly.

This is killing performance. Anything more that about 7 or 8 clones brings the app to a halt. Why would this happen? The USING block ought to ensure the MemoryString is disposed of, right? Shouldn't a new MemoryString be created each time? I would think since the same original Mode object is the source for the serialization, the MemoryString length would be the same.
I have an XML document that I am deserializing (VB .NET 3.5 Framework), changing some values, and the serializing again. The original document has several XML Comments in it. When I go through all the deserialize/serialize all of the comments are lost. Is there a way to preserve the comments? If not, is there a way to add comments on serialization without having to walk through with the writer and manually add all of the comments back in the appropriate place?
