ISupportStreamSerialization Interface

Specifies that an object supports serialization via static Stream operations using object-typed ReadFrom(Stream) and WriteTo(Stream, Object) methods.

Definition

Namespace: Gemstone.IO.Parsing
Assembly: Gemstone.IO (in Gemstone.IO.dll) Version: 1.0.158 -- Release Build+f7106cda20384a326bb8a47ce83b28923b71589b
public interface ISupportStreamSerialization

Remarks

This interface exists to allow classes to properly define the needed method signatures for using StreamSerializationT operations. However, as long as the ReadFrom(Stream) and WriteTo(Stream, Object) methods exist on a class with the proper signature, actual implementation of this interface is optional.

Properties

UseCustomListSerialization Gets flag that determines if type implementing ISupportStreamSerialization is a list-type and supports its own list serialization handling, i.e., if automated list count and items serialization should be skipped by StreamSerializationT operations.

Methods

ReadFrom Deserializes an object from a Stream.
WriteTo Serializes an object to a Stream.
