How to serializing object in an unreferenced assembly?

I am trying to serialize object using BinaryFormatter like below:

//=============== =========
void SomeFunction()
{
SomeClass anObject;

BinaryFormatter bf = new BinaryFormatter ();
MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();
bf.Serialize(ms , anObject);
.....
ms.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begi n);
SomeClass aCopyObject = (SomeClass) bf.Deserialize( ms); // <==
exception?
}
// =============== =========

It works like a charm if I put these code in any assembly referenced.
However, when I place all these things (including the class "SomeClass" )
into a dynamically loaded assembly (with name "plugins"), I got an exception
on deserialization . The error message tell me it "Cannot find assembly
'plugins'", while the error is raised by the code INSIDE the assembly
"plugins". When I add the plugins.dll back to the reference, it works again.
So I assume it searchs for assemblies within its reference list only.

Is there any work around I could use without writing my own deserializer?

Hi, I've hit quite a strange problem with XmlSerializer on my W2K3 server. When I serialize/deserialize using an exe on my local computer (XP), everything works fine. When I put the code out on the server (W2K3) it throws an exception. It only seems to happen when serializing/deserializing _arrays_ of a type. If I just serialize/deserialize one instance, it works fine. The exception I get is: (sorry for the word wrapping.)...

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. So I created a couple of objects and serializing it into XML based upon the schema works perfectly. The XML / Schema looks something like this:

Hello all; I seem to be having some trouble serializing a class to XML. This code is a cut & paste from a project which used it perfectly, but all of a sudden I'm getting an error that the "dll ogerh_f6.dll or one of its dependancies cannot be found". The class I'm serializing is quite simple, with a couple of string properties marked with the XmlElementAttribute. The class is marked with the Serializable attribute. As such, I don't...

Here's a question that I've not been able to get a definitive answer to. Creating an STA object (such as a typical VB6 object) and assigning to the ASP Session store is a bad thing. It's a bad thing because it forces IIS to affiliate the Session with the Thread on which the STA object is created. This means all subsequent requests for that session can only be handled by that worker thread and can therefore result it in poor...

I have written an Office Add-in for Excel using VB.NET and the .NET 1.1 Framework (I have Visual Studio 2003 .NET ). All works great. I want to add a User Settings/Prefereneces dialog and allow the user to specify some settings and I need to persist these settings between runs. I made a serializable class which uses the BinaryFormatter to serialize/deserialize the setttings. Serialization works great. However, when I try to...

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

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. 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.
