Examples

The following code example demonstrates how you can create a TrackingProfileSerializer using the TrackingProfileSerializer constructor to serialize a TrackingProfile. The code also uses the Serialize method.

This code example is part of the Query using SQLTrackingService SDK sample from the Program.cs file. For more information, see Query Using SQLTrackingService.

private static void CreateAndInsertTrackingProfile()
{
    TrackingProfile profile = new TrackingProfile();
    ActivityTrackPoint activityTrack = new ActivityTrackPoint();
    ActivityTrackingLocation activityLocation = new ActivityTrackingLocation(typeof(Activity));
    activityLocation.MatchDerivedTypes = true;
    IEnumerable<ActivityExecutionStatus> statuses = Enum.GetValues(typeof(ActivityExecutionStatus)) as IEnumerable<ActivityExecutionStatus>;
    foreach (ActivityExecutionStatus status in statuses)
    {
        activityLocation.ExecutionStatusEvents.Add(status);
    }

    activityTrack.MatchingLocations.Add(activityLocation);
    profile.ActivityTrackPoints.Add(activityTrack);
    profile.Version = version;

    WorkflowTrackPoint workflowTrack = new WorkflowTrackPoint();
    WorkflowTrackingLocation workflowLocation = new WorkflowTrackingLocation();
    IEnumerable<TrackingWorkflowEvent> eventStatuses = Enum.GetValues(typeof(TrackingWorkflowEvent)) as IEnumerable<TrackingWorkflowEvent>;
    foreach (TrackingWorkflowEvent status in eventStatuses)
    {
        workflowLocation.Events.Add(status);
    }

    workflowTrack.MatchingLocation = workflowLocation;
    profile.WorkflowTrackPoints.Add(workflowTrack);

    TrackingProfileSerializer serializer = new TrackingProfileSerializer();
    StringWriter writer = new StringWriter(new StringBuilder(), CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
    serializer.Serialize(writer, profile);
    string trackingprofile = writer.ToString();
    InsertTrackingProfile(trackingprofile);
}

Shared Sub CreateAndInsertTrackingProfile()
    Dim profile As TrackingProfile = New TrackingProfile()

    Dim activityTrack As ActivityTrackPoint = New ActivityTrackPoint()
    Dim activityLocation As ActivityTrackingLocation = New ActivityTrackingLocation(GetType(Activity))
    activityLocation.MatchDerivedTypes = True
    Dim statuses As IEnumerable(Of ActivityExecutionStatus) = CType(System.Enum.GetValues(GetType(ActivityExecutionStatus)), IEnumerable(Of ActivityExecutionStatus))
    For Each status As ActivityExecutionStatus In statuses
        activityLocation.ExecutionStatusEvents.Add(status)
    Next

    activityTrack.MatchingLocations.Add(activityLocation)
    profile.ActivityTrackPoints.Add(activityTrack)
    profile.Version = version

    Dim workflowTrack As WorkflowTrackPoint = New WorkflowTrackPoint()
    Dim workflowLocation As WorkflowTrackingLocation = New WorkflowTrackingLocation()
    Dim eventStatuses As IEnumerable(Of TrackingWorkflowEvent) = CType(System.Enum.GetValues(GetType(TrackingWorkflowEvent)), IEnumerable(Of TrackingWorkflowEvent))
    For Each status As TrackingWorkflowEvent In eventStatuses
        workflowLocation.Events.Add(status)
    Next

    workflowTrack.MatchingLocation = workflowLocation
    profile.WorkflowTrackPoints.Add(workflowTrack)

    Dim serializer As TrackingProfileSerializer = New TrackingProfileSerializer()
    Dim writer As StringWriter = New StringWriter(New StringBuilder(), CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)
    serializer.Serialize(writer, profile)
    Dim trackingProfile As String = writer.ToString()
    InsertTrackingProfile(trackingProfile)
End Sub

Remarks

Note

This material discusses types and namespaces that are obsolete. For more information, see Deprecated Types in Windows Workflow Foundation 4.5.

The TrackingProfileSerializer uses the tracking profile XSD contained in TrackingProfileSerializer.Schema to serialize TrackingProfile objects into valid XML documents and to deserialize valid XML documents into TrackingProfile objects. The TrackingProfileSerializer performs validation during both serialization and deserialization and, if necessary, throws an appropriate exception.

An XML document provides a convenient format in which to store a tracking profile. It also provides a non-programmatic way of authoring tracking profiles. The out-of-box SqlTrackingService uses a TrackingProfileSerializer to serialize and deserialize the tracking profiles that are stored in its database.

Constructors

TrackingProfileSerializer()

Initializes a new instance of the TrackingProfileSerializer class.

Properties

Schema

Gets the tracking profile XML schema definition (XSD).

Methods

Deserialize(TextReader)	Deserializes the XML document that is contained in the text reader by using the tracking profile XML Schema definition (XSD).
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)
MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
Serialize(TextWriter, TrackingProfile)	Serializes the tracking profile into an XML document by using the tracking profile XML Schema definition (XSD).
ToString()	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)
