Serializes the specified object and writes the XML document to a file using the specified System.Xml.XmlWriter and references the specified namespaces.
Syntax
Parameters
- xmlWriter
- o
- namespaces
Remarks
When the XmlSerializer.Serialize(System.IO.TextWriter, object) method is invoked, the public fields and read/write properties of an object are converted into XML. Methods, indexers, private fields, and read-only properties are not serialized. To serialize all fields and properties, both public and private, use the System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary.BinaryFormatter.
Use the xmlWriter parameter to specify an object that derives from the abstract System.Xml.XmlWriter class, which is designed to write XML documents. The System.Xml.XmlTextWriter derives from the System.Xml.XmlWriter.
The System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer cannot serialize the following: arrays of ArrayList and arrays of List`1.
