You could use Serialization to convert the class into XML, use import
the namespace System.Xml.Serialization, then mark your class
Serializable:
<Serializable()> Public Class MyClass
Dim mText As String
Public Property Tags() As String
Get
Return mText
End Get
Set(ByVal Value As String)
mText= Value
End Set
End Property
End Class
Then to save the object:
Private Sub SaveObject()
Dim MyObject As New MyClass()
Dim Seralizer As New XmlSerializer(GetType(MyClass))
Dim XmlFile As New FileStream("C:\Temp\MyFile", _
FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write)
Dim XmlWriter As New XmlTextWriter(XmlFile, Nothing)
Seralizer.Serialize(XmlWriter, MyObjec )
XmlWriter.Close()
XmlFile.Close()
XmlFile = Nothing
End Sub
And to load the object:
Public Sub LoadObject ()
Dim Seralizer As New XmlSerializer(GetType(MyClass))
Dim XmlFile As New FileStream("C:\Temp\MyFile", _
FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read)
Dim XmlReader As New XmlTextReader(XmlFile)
Dim MyObject as MyClass = _
CType(Seralizer.Deserialize(XmlReader), MyClass)
XmlReader.Close()
XmlFile.Close()
End Sub
Hope this helps....
