Is a binary-serialized DataSet versioning tolerant?

1st I serialize a DataSet (contains 14 DataTables) into file, with
BinaryFormatter .
2nd I change some columns in a DataTable.
3rd When I now Deserialize the DataSet from bin file got I problems ??

Thanks in advance

Yu will get the same dataset that when you serialized it the first
time.

Just to add, you will get the same result using any other
serialization method.

Remember, you will get a NEW instance of a Dataset (which contains all
the dattables) . It has no knowledge that the "original" instance
changed.

Thanks for the answer!

I have done the following:
....
BinaryFormatter f = new BinaryFormatter ();

using ( FileStream fs = new FileStream( @"MyFile.bin ", FileMode.Open ) )
{
dsDes = (DataSet1)f.Des erialize( fs );
}

The cast (DataSet1) works although I have deleted a column in a DataTable
in the DataSet1 before I called the Deserialize() function.

What would be the common sense way of finding a binary pattern in a ..bin file, say some 200 bytes, and replacing it with an updated pattern of the same length at the same offset? Also, the pattern can occur on any byte boundary in the file, so chunking through the code at 16 bytes a frame maybe a problem. The file itself isn't so large, maybe 32 kbytes is all and the need for speed is not so great, but the need for accuracy in the...

A signed int reserves one bit to signify whether a number is positive or negative. In light of this, a colleague asked me whether there existed an int in C++ that was -0, a zero with the negative bit set. I was intrigued by this, so I tried the following code: #include <stdio.h> int main(int, char**) { int a(-0); printf("a=%d\n", a);

What does binary mode for an ofstream object do anyway? Despite which mode the stream uses, operator << writes numeric value as their ASCII representation.

I did not, however, find any information on how this can be accomplished. What is involved in getting this...

Hi all, I try to create a tool to check the delta (diff) of 2 binaries and create the delta binary. I use binary formatter (serialization) to create the delta binary. It works fine but the delta binary is pretty huge in size. I have 1 byte file and 2 bytes file, the delta should be 1 byte but somehow it turns out to be 249 bytes using binary formatter. I guess serialization has some other things added to the delta file.

I have to output data into a binary file, that will contain data coming from a four channel measurement instrument. Since those data have to be read from another C program somewhere else, the reading program must know how many channels have been acquired, date, time, and so on. I mean that the position of each datum is not fixed in the file but depends on the conditions when acquired. That is, I need something like a header in the file to...
