HI ALL,
I am curious to poll you great guys, what kind of serializer/deserializer do you use for a .NET class? XML formatter or binary serializer?
Do you have any good links to share?

Whatever serializer is appropriate for whatever arbitrary purpose.
I've even written my own serializers to support file types are not baked into the .NET BCL.
|
|
|
|
|
thanks for pointing out the link.
in my mind I am thinking of this universal serializer to replace customized one [^]

How about DataContract serializer? :p
Though for my own takeover the world project (in progress) I wrote a DocumentReaderWriter with its own feature!
|
|
|
|
|
thanks for the thought. In your Menu-ribbon Bar project, which way do you use?

Nah, the MenuRibbon project doesn't use any serializer! 
The super secret take over the world project is completely secret for now!  
Though, speaking of which, I was about to rework my serializer to make it a bit more general... Might share it with you if you like, but its not an automatic serializer, more like a document reader/writer utility and might require some work to use...
(it does automatically save DataContract but without Emit, so it's slower than DataContractSerializer too)

I usually use a version of MycroXaml[^] to instantiate .NET classes from XML, and I usually need some custom serialization code going the other way.

For xml, I roll my own. My stuff can gracefully recover from the possibility of missing/invalid values, and assign reasonable defaults. That way, my app runs no matter what happens in the config file.

The framework's binary Serializer is not intended to be used for data at rest; the intent was to make it as fast as possible for real time IPC and the resulting internal format is extremely brittle and will break if you change anything about the class (or worse its namespace). For all that, Google's Protocol Buffer library (.net flavor) is much faster at binary serialization while being much more flexible and having really good cross platform support as well

Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
