Hi;
I would like to be able to use the XMLSerializer to serialize and
deserialize a dictionary. is that possible? i know that you can serialize an
object that implements the ICollection interface. does the fact that
Dictionary inherits from ICollection<cau se a problem?
Currently i am using a class that inherits from ICollection and it has a
Dictionary as it's container. but when it gets to creating the serialized
object it blows up. here is the code for the collection class:
using System;
using System.Collecti ons;
using System.Collecti ons.Generic;
using System.Text;
using System.Xml;
using System.Xml.Seri alization;
namespace testBed
{
[Serializable]
public class ItemFile : ICollection
{
private Dictionary<obje ct, ItemADList = new Dictionary<obje ct,
Item>();
public Item this[object key]
{
get { return (Item)ADList[key]; }
}
public void Add(Item entry)
{
ADList.Add(entr y.GetProperty(" ID"), entry);
}
public void Clear()
{
ADList.Clear();
}
public int Count
{
get { return ADList.Count; }
}
public void CopyTo(Array a, int index)
{
foreach(Item item in ADList.Values)
{
a.SetValue(item , index);
index++;
}
}
public object SyncRoot
{
get { return this; }
}
public bool IsSynchronized
{
get { return false; }
}
public IEnumerator GetEnumerator()
{
return ADList.GetEnume rator();
}
}
}
here is the code i use to read and write:
private static void read(string filename, out ItemFile file)
{
XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(t ypeof(ItemFile) );
FileStream fs = new FileStream(file name, FileMode.Open);
file = (ItemFile)seria lizer.Deseriali ze(fs);
}
private static void write(string filename, ItemFile file)
{
XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(t ypeof(ItemFile) );
TextWriter writer = new StreamWriter(fi lename);
serializer.Seri alize(writer, file);
writer.Close();
}
any help would be appreciated.
thanks. 2 5745

Hi,
I think that is depends of the key/value types, if you are using a
non serializable type you will not be able to serialize it
See

I have not "2.0'ed it up", but maybe it'll help.

I am trying to find a solution that will allow me to use XmlSerializer to serialize/deserialize a collection of objects where a given object is shared between two or more other objects, and not create duplicate XML representations of the shared object, but instead use IDREFs to refer to the shared object.
The XML I'm trying to produce is as follows (where "href" is an IDREF):

Hi all
I'm learning XML and .NET and I saw an example of using XmlSerializer to
deserialize an XML file to get the corresponding object in memory. I found
it very useful for my purpose. However, for simple properties it works for
me, but I actually need a bit more than just properties.
For example, my class actually contains a collection of strings as well, now
is using XmlSerializer the right choice? I don't know how many there...

Hello!
I have an xml schema which has a date typed attribute. I have used xsd.exe
to create a class library for XmlSerializer. The result of
XmlSerializer.Serialize(...) should be passed as the value for the parameter
of an SqlCommand for inserting the xml document in a column of a table where
the column is typed to be of the same xml schema.
This all sounds simple, but SQL Server REQUIRES the timezone to be specified
for date values....
