Hi
I'm having problem serialization an object instance which contains a public property on the object type
My object hierarchy is many levels deep, so for simplicty I created to following which produces the same error
Let's say there is a class called ParkingSpot with a public member Vehicle having an object type of object
For simplicity, let's say that Vehicle could be anything, hence I create a new object of Car typ
and assign it to the Vehicle property of the ParkingSpot object
When I try to serialize the ParkingSpot class, I get an error with an inner exception stating
_innerException: {"The type SerializationTest.Car was not expected. Use the XmlInclude or SoapInclude attribute to specify types that are not known statically."
My classes are the following
using System
using System.Runtime.Serialization
using System.Xml.Serialization
public class ParkingSpot : ISerializable
private object _vehicle
public ParkingSpot(){
[XmlElement("Vehicle")
public object Vehicl
ge
return _vehicle
se
_vehicle = value
#region ISerializable Member
public void GetObjectData(SerializationInfo info, StreamingContext context
// TODO: Add ParkingSpot.GetObjectData implementatio
#endregio
public class Ca
public string Make
public string Model
public Car(){
I have a button on a form with the following serialization code
private void btnSerialize_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e
ParkingSpot parkingSpot = new ParkingSpot()
Car car = new Car()
car.Make = "Nissan"
car.Model = "Maxima"
parkingSpot.Vehicle = car;
tr
// Serializatio
XmlSerializer s = new XmlSerializer(typeof(ParkingSpot))
TextWriter w = new StreamWriter(@"C:\ParkingSpot.xml")
s.Serialize(w, parkingSpot)
w.Close()
catch (Exception exp
Console.WriteLine ("{0}",exp.Message);
Does anyone know what the problem is
I tried changing the [XmlElement] attribute to [XmlAnyElement] attribute, but this causes another error
Please help, I've been stumped on this one for over a day
Thanks a lot
