soapformatter vs xmlserializer

Hi all, i'm looking for some performance comparison some charts. I have read
the xmlserializer is better, more flexible and faster (analyzing data types
in constructor), but there are some limitation (i.e. public members).
SoapFormatter is better to serialize arbitrary data.
I have done some tests and SoapFormatter is faster 5 times than
XmlSerializer. I don't undestand it, I have tried large arrays, small string
.... the result seems the same - soapformatter is better.

Any idea???

Thank's Petr

Hi, XmlSerializer can serialize data to a file, but SoapFormatter can do the same except that the serialized data in the file is not proper Xml : for instance there is no XmlRoot-element. Why then use SoapFormatter at all ? thanks Chris

We currently persist our objects to xml/soap files using a SoapFormatter. We control the serialization and de-serialization by implementing the ISerializable and its two interface methods, namely, GetObjectData and a constructor that takes two arguments (a SerializationInfo object and a StreamingContext object). It appears with the release of .net 2.0 that support for the SoapFormatter is 'frozen' and that the direction we should take is...

I have an application where I have to make a tree of objects. To do this, I have my own node class. At certain points in the application, I need to save data. I am having a problem with the SoapFormatter. The following program gets the exception: "The data at the root level is invalid. Line 55, position -460." This code works fine if I use a BinaryFormatter instead of a SoapFormatter. Any ideas? Here is a test program:

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...

Hello. I have found out that a VS2005 WebService by default serializes my objects using normal XmlSerializer. Howerver, I need it to serialize them using SoapFormatter by default (without doing the call in every "return" statement of each of my webmethods). Can this be done? By the way, I would also to call a "SanityCheck()" method for every object that is returned from my webmethods before sending them. Can this be done without AOP? ...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
