Personally, apart from mandatory university books from a long time ago, I've never bought a computing book, and whilst I've occasionally used an odd one from work, I've done m ...Show All

• .NET Development OnDeserialize, OnDeserialized and SoapFormatter

  The following MSDN article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/04/10/AdvancedSerialization/ seems to imply that the SoapFormatter will not make use of methods marked OnDeserialize, OnDeserialized, OnSerialize or OnSerialized and the BinaryFormatter will. The documentation at msdn2.microsoft.com doesn't seem to indicate this will be the case. Can someone confirm that these events will be handled in the same fashion by both the binary and soap formatters Thanks, Ray Thanks, that explains a lot. The good news is that removing the soap formatter will help create a more coherent serialization story for ...Show All
