Caution

RootDesignerSerializerAttribute has been deprecated. Use DesignerSerializerAttribute instead. For example, to specify a root designer for CodeDom, use DesignerSerializerAttribute(...,typeof(TypeCodeDomSerializer)) instead.

Indicates the base serializer to use for a root designer object. This class cannot be inherited.

Examples

The following example code applies a RootDesignerSerializerAttribute to a component.

   [DesignerSerializer(CodeDomSerializerSample::MyCodeDomSerializer::typeid,
      CodeDomSerializer::typeid)]
   public ref class MyComponent: public Component
   {
   private:
      String^ localProperty;

   public:
      MyComponent()
      {
         localProperty = "Component Property Value";
      }

      property String^ LocalProperty 
      {
         String^ get()
         {
            return localProperty;
         }
         void set( String^ value )
         {
            localProperty = value;
         }
      }
   };
}

[DesignerSerializer(typeof(MyCodeDomSerializer), typeof(CodeDomSerializer))]
public class MyComponent : Component {
    private string localProperty = "Component Property Value";
    public string LocalProperty {
        get {
            return localProperty;
        }
        set {
            localProperty = value;
        }
    }
}

<DesignerSerializer(GetType(MyCodeDomSerializer), GetType(CodeDomSerializer))> _
Public Class MyComponent
   Inherits Component
   Private localProperty As String = "Component Property Value"

   Public Property LocalProp() As String
      Get
         Return localProperty
      End Get
      Set(ByVal Value As String)
         localProperty = Value
      End Set
   End Property
End Class

Remarks

RootDesignerSerializerAttribute indicates the serializer to use when the serialization manager serializes the design document, and whether the specified serializer supports automatic reloading of the design document without first completely disposing of the document.

This attribute contains the following significant members:

• SerializerTypeName indicates what serialization object to use to serialize the class at design time.

• SerializerBaseTypeName indicates the fully qualified name of the serialization object's base type.

• Reloadable indicates whether the serializer supports reloading a design document without user interaction to open a new designer view.

Constructors

RootDesignerSerializerAttribute(String, String, Boolean)	Initializes a new instance of the RootDesignerSerializerAttribute class using the specified attributes.
RootDesignerSerializerAttribute(String, Type, Boolean)	Initializes a new instance of the RootDesignerSerializerAttribute class using the specified attributes.
RootDesignerSerializerAttribute(Type, Type, Boolean)	Initializes a new instance of the RootDesignerSerializerAttribute class using the specified attributes.

Properties

Reloadable	Gets a value indicating whether the root serializer supports reloading of the design document without first disposing the designer host.
SerializerBaseTypeName	Gets the fully qualified type name of the base type of the serializer.
SerializerTypeName	Gets the fully qualified type name of the serializer.
TypeId	Gets a unique ID for this attribute type.

Methods

Equals(Object)	Returns a value that indicates whether this instance is equal to a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute)
GetHashCode()	Returns the hash code for this instance. (Inherited from Attribute)
GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
IsDefaultAttribute()	When overridden in a derived class, indicates whether the value of this instance is the default value for the derived class. (Inherited from Attribute)
Match(Object)	When overridden in a derived class, returns a value that indicates whether this instance equals a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute)
MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
ToString()	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)
