Constructors

DataContractSerializer(Type, DataContractSerializerSettings)	Initializes a new instance of the DataContractSerializer class to serialize or deserialize an object of the specified type and settings.
DataContractSerializer(Type, IEnumerable<Type>, Int32, Boolean, Boolean, IDataContractSurrogate, DataContractResolver)	Initializes a new instance of the DataContractSerializer class to serialize or deserialize an object of the specified type. This method also specifies a list of known types that may be present in the object graph, the maximum number of graph items to serialize, parameters to ignore unexpected data, whether to use non-standard XML constructs to preserve object reference data in the graph, a surrogate for custom serialization, and an alternative for mapping `xsi:type` declarations at run time.
DataContractSerializer(Type, IEnumerable<Type>, Int32, Boolean, Boolean, IDataContractSurrogate)	Initializes a new instance of the DataContractSerializer class to serialize or deserialize an object of the specified type. This method also specifies a list of known types that may be present in the object graph, the maximum number of graph items to serialize, parameters to ignore unexpected data, whether to use non-standard XML constructs to preserve object reference data in the graph, and a surrogate for custom serialization.
DataContractSerializer(Type, IEnumerable<Type>)	Initializes a new instance of the DataContractSerializer class to serialize or deserialize an object of the specified type, and a collection of known types that may be present in the object graph.
DataContractSerializer(Type, String, String, IEnumerable<Type>, Int32, Boolean, Boolean, IDataContractSurrogate, DataContractResolver)	Initializes a new instance of the DataContractSerializer class to serialize or deserialize an object of the specified type. This method also specifies a list of known types that may be present in the object graph, the maximum number of graph items to serialize, parameters to ignore unexpected data, whether to use non-standard XML constructs to preserve object reference data in the graph, a surrogate for custom serialization, the XML element and namespace that contains the content, and an alternative for mapping `xsi:type` declarations at run time.
DataContractSerializer(Type, String, String, IEnumerable<Type>, Int32, Boolean, Boolean, IDataContractSurrogate)	Initializes a new instance of the DataContractSerializer class to serialize or deserialize an object of the specified type. This method also specifies a list of known types that may be present in the object graph, the maximum number of graph items to serialize, parameters to ignore unexpected data, whether to use non-standard XML constructs to preserve object reference data in the graph, a surrogate for custom serialization, and the XML element and namespace that contain the content.
DataContractSerializer(Type, String, String, IEnumerable<Type>)	Initializes a new instance of the DataContractSerializer class to serialize or deserialize an object of the specified type. This method also specifies the root XML element and namespace in two string parameters as well as a list of known types that may be present in the object graph.
DataContractSerializer(Type, String, String)	Initializes a new instance of the DataContractSerializer class to serialize or deserialize an object of the specified type using the supplied XML root element and namespace.
DataContractSerializer(Type, XmlDictionaryString, XmlDictionaryString, IEnumerable<Type>, Int32, Boolean, Boolean, IDataContractSurrogate, DataContractResolver)	Initializes a new instance of the DataContractSerializer class to serialize or deserialize an object of the specified type. This method also specifies a list of known types that may be present in the object graph, the maximum number of graph items to serialize, parameters to ignore unexpected data, whether to use non-standard XML constructs to preserve object reference data in the graph, a surrogate for custom serialization, parameters of XmlDictionaryString that specify the XML element and namespace that contains the content, and an alternative for mapping `xsi:type` declarations at run time.
DataContractSerializer(Type, XmlDictionaryString, XmlDictionaryString, IEnumerable<Type>, Int32, Boolean, Boolean, IDataContractSurrogate)	Initializes a new instance of the DataContractSerializer class to serialize or deserialize an object of the specified type. This method also specifies a list of known types that may be present in the object graph, the maximum number of graph items to serialize, parameters to ignore unexpected data, whether to use non-standard XML constructs to preserve object reference data in the graph, a surrogate for custom serialization, and parameters of XmlDictionaryString that specify the XML element and namespace that contain the content.
DataContractSerializer(Type, XmlDictionaryString, XmlDictionaryString, IEnumerable<Type>)	Initializes a new instance of the DataContractSerializer class to serialize or deserialize an object of the specified type. This method also specifies the root XML element and namespace in two XmlDictionaryString parameters as well as a list of known types that may be present in the object graph.
DataContractSerializer(Type, XmlDictionaryString, XmlDictionaryString)	Initializes a new instance of the DataContractSerializer class to serialize or deserialize an object of the specified type using the XML root element and namespace specified through the parameters of type XmlDictionaryString.
DataContractSerializer(Type)	Initializes a new instance of the DataContractSerializer class to serialize or deserialize an object of the specified type.

Properties

DataContractResolver	Gets the component used to dynamically map `xsi:type` declarations to known contract types.
DataContractSurrogate	Gets a surrogate type that can extend the serialization or deserialization process.
IgnoreExtensionDataObject	Gets a value that specifies whether to ignore data supplied by an extension of the class when the class is being serialized or deserialized.
KnownTypes	Gets a collection of types that may be present in the object graph serialized using this instance of the DataContractSerializer.
MaxItemsInObjectGraph	Gets the maximum number of items in an object graph to serialize or deserialize.
PreserveObjectReferences	Gets a value that specifies whether to use non-standard XML constructs to preserve object reference data.
SerializeReadOnlyTypes	Gets a value that specifies whether read-only types are serialized.

Methods

Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object)
GetHashCode()	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object)
GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
IsStartObject(XmlDictionaryReader)	Determines whether the XmlDictionaryReader is positioned on an object that can be deserialized.
IsStartObject(XmlReader)	Determines whether the XmlReader is positioned on an object that can be deserialized.
MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
ReadObject(Stream)	Reads the XML stream or document with a Stream and returns the deserialized object. (Inherited from XmlObjectSerializer)
ReadObject(XmlDictionaryReader, Boolean, DataContractResolver)	Reads an XML document or document stream and returns the deserialized object. The method includes a parameter to specify whether the object name is verified is validated, and a resolver for mapping `xsi:type` declarations at runtime.
ReadObject(XmlDictionaryReader, Boolean)	Reads the XML stream with an XmlDictionaryReader and returns the deserialized object, and also specifies whether a check is made to verify the object name before reading its value.
