Odd's Very Special Xml Serializer
..Or OVSXmlSerializer for short.
The system itself works very similar to how the XML serializer works normally,
but is meant to be worked with the object
or more 'undefined' data that the
ordinary XML serializer have difficulty handling. You can turn this off for
more traditional formatting with the config class, but it does reveal the issue
once again. Additionally, It can handle reference types; allowing multiple
separate fields that contain the same instance; It also allows you to connect a
built-in debugger to specifically track what is wrong with the
serialization/deserialization if needed.
Unlike the traditional XML Serializer, this will use the type parameters in the
class to automatically differentiate enums and arrays, which will remove the need
to mark fields as [XmlArray]
or [XmlEnum]
.
Explicit Types
The unique function of this XML serializer over others is its explicit type
handling. What this does is that it allows it to reserve its derived types when
considering base types, down to the level of object
. This feature can be turned
on or off.
This feature is enabled by default, but creating XmlSerializerConfig
, this can
be turned off. It will also implicitly convert System.Xml.XmlWriterSettings
to
the config to ensure smooth transtion between systems.
There are 3 options you can enable:
- Always Included - Regardless of the situation, it will write the type.
- Smart Types - When defined out of the base field, it will write the type.
- Ignore - It will never write the type, which may show incorrect behaviour.
Serializing
Like the default system XML serializer, they pose the same requirements such as:
- Requiring to have a public or private parameterless constructor.
- Having all fields follow the same constraint as above.
There are two serializers, the generic and the non-generic. The non-generic derives from the generic as object for performance reasons, and is created as instances due to configurations.
The method returns a MemoryStream
, a stream that can be used for overriding specific
file systems as such, but can be converted to a string if needed by other systems.
The system provides its own interface called IXmlSerializable
, which is not
the same as the traditional system. Luckily, instead of using XmlReader
, it uses
a XmlNode
instead. XmlWriter
is here to stay, though.
Deserializing
Requires the stream or XML file to retrieve the object mentioned by the XML. It is relatively easy enough, get a file that is generated by the OVSXmlSerializer and it will de-parse it easily, assuming that you know the derived types.
Attributes
Here are a few attributes that uses in its own OVSXmlSerializer
namespace.
Note that System.Xml.Serialization
will be converted automatically if needed.
[XmlIgnore]
Ignores the field completely[XmlAttribute]
Adds primitive value as a single attribute to the class being serialized[XmlNamedAs(string name)]
Changes the field name or object name to something else on XML serialization.[XmlText]
Assuming that all other fields are attributes or ignored, this will write the primitive value[XmlIgnoreEnumerable]
If the object implements enumerable, this ignores the serialization that comes with it.
Arrays are automatically serialized as if it is an ordinary list or dictionary.
