static	GenerateSerializer(Type[], XmlMapping[], System.CodeDom.Compiler.CompilerParameters) : System.Reflection.Assembly Returns an assembly that contains custom-made serializers used to serialize or deserialize the specified type or types, using the specified mappings and compiler settings and options.
static	GetXmlSerializerAssemblyName(Type) : string Returns the name of the assembly that contains one or more versions of the System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer especially created to serialize or deserialize the specified type.
static	GetXmlSerializerAssemblyName(Type, string) : string Returns the name of the assembly that contains the serializer for the specified type in the specified namespace.
	Serialize(System.IO.Stream, object) Serializes the specified object and writes the XML document to a file using the specified System.IO.Stream.
