Serializing multiple but equal objects...

I've had great success with the XmlSerializer but ran into a new problem.
Say I have "classA" with a reference to "myObject" and "classB" with a
reference to "myObject" ... it appears that the one "myObject" gets
serialized as two separate objects. And consequently, when you deserialized
"classA" and "classB" the two "myObjects" are not equal.
How can I serialize a class so that any references to the same object, are
deserialized the same, referencing only one object?
Thanks,
Jacob

Hello

Use soap formatter or binary formatter

When a class contains a TimeSpan property, XmlSerializer doesn't work. A TimeSpan property is serialized like: <MySpan /> I've read a number of posts that talk about why this happens and how to work around it. My question is from a slightly different angle. What can I do to my value type structures so that XmlSerializer can serialize them properly?

All, I have quite a challenging task ahead of me. I need to write an object model (for code access) based on a schema, which cannot be made into a dataset because of it's complexity.

When does serializing objects make more sense than persisting them to a database? I'm new to object serialization, and I'm trying to get a feel for when to use it. Here is an example: I'm writing an accounting application. I have a chart of accounts in the form of a containment hierarchy. A GeneralLedger contains a number of Accounts, and each of these Accounts can contain a Aubledger, which contains its own Accounts, and so on. The...

Can you do a search for more that one string in another string? Something like: someString.IndexOf("something1","something2","something3",0) or would you have to do something like: if ((someString.IndexOf("something1",0) >= 0) || ((someString.IndexOf("something2",0) >= 0) ||

I'm trying to serialize a collection to a file stream by serializing each object individually. The code below works fine with the BinaryFormatter, but the SoapFormatter reads the first object and just goes to the end of the file. After reading the first object, the fStream.Position is pointed to the end of the file. The collection serializes/deserilizes fine when I just serialize the hashtable vs. each object in the hashtable. Does...

Due to the behaviour of a particular COM object, I need to ensure that a request for a particular ASP page is finalized before another request for the page is processed. Does IIS have a way to ensure that subsequent requests will be queued until the current request is completed? If not, can IIS be configured to use seperate processes to satisfy requests for a nominated ASP page? Thanks in advance.
