Hi all.
Trying to serialize and desirialize an object. the object is transfered as a
byte[] using a web service to the client. the client then has to deserialize
the byte[] to an object and work with it.
the object has a not-so-complicated graph constructed from several classes i
made and fields of mostly simple types (string, int, enums) and bitmaps.
I am getting an error on the client side saying "Object type cannot be
converted to target type."
I was afraid that since some of the properties are defined only as "get",
the formatter cant reconstruct object state. to verify that, I added a line
in the web service that desirializes the object too, and that works. seems
like the "traffic on the web" (lol) has damaged the object?
both web service and client use the same dll that holds the classes and the
same version.
any ideas?
thanx,
picho

If both client and server will be running .NET, you'll probably get
better performance (and less problems) using remoting. The
serialization will done for you by the remoting framework. Your code
can be as simple as:
MyServerObject server = new MyServerObject( );
server.Method1( );
server.Method3( 4, 3);
Yet "MyServerObject " is an object on a remote server.

Thank you Patrick for your reply.
I understand that remoting can work in tcp cahnnel as well?
how can I ensure security that is if the object state holds confidential
info.
what I did with the web service is serializing and then encrypting so I felt
it was a secure way.

we are having a problem when trying to serilalize and deserialize DataTable
When replacing the container to be ListArray or HashTable everything works
fine
The code is very straight forward ( see below), however when comparing the
DataTable before and after the serialize, it is not the same
The DataTable after the serialization contains only the string of class type
( Vclass in this class) but not the class itself
Any idea ?

Hi, there.
Recently I was working on a problem where we want to save generic
closures in a data structure (a vector). The closure should work for
any data type and any method with pre-defined signature.
When developing this lib, I figured that the
pointer-to-member-function, although seemingly an attractive solution,
does not work well for us.

There is an error in XML document (1, 2).
I used XML spy to create the XML and XSD. When I asked to
have the XML validated it said it was OK.
I used the .net SDK to generate the class. I have done
this before but this time I have no idea why I am getting
the error. Any ideas ?? THANKS !

I am having a problem deserializing objects from a library when the
following conditions exist:
1- The library is strongly named
2- The serialized file was created with version 1.0 of the assembly
3- I am trying to deserialize from an EXE that references version 2.0 of
the assembly
4- Both version 1.0 and 2.0 of the assembly reside in the GAC (no policy
redirects exist).

Hiddeldi ho,
I want to save an object so that I can use its content after I restart
my program. I tried to solve this with serialization because someone
told me that this is the correct way for this.
So I wrote the following code to serialize\deserialize the object, but
now I have the problem that the object has a generic list and when I'm
trying to deserialize it, I get an error.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
