DataContractResolver.TryResolveType Method
Definition
Important
Some information relates to prerelease product that may be substantially modified before it’s released. Microsoft makes no warranties, express or implied, with respect to the information provided here.
Override this method to map a data contract type to an xsi:type
name and namespace during serialization.
public:
abstract bool TryResolveType(Type ^ type, Type ^ declaredType, System::Runtime::Serialization::DataContractResolver ^ knownTypeResolver, [Runtime::InteropServices::Out] System::Xml::XmlDictionaryString ^ % typeName, [Runtime::InteropServices::Out] System::Xml::XmlDictionaryString ^ % typeNamespace);
public abstract bool TryResolveType (Type type, Type declaredType, System.Runtime.Serialization.DataContractResolver knownTypeResolver, out System.Xml.XmlDictionaryString typeName, out System.Xml.XmlDictionaryString typeNamespace);
public abstract bool TryResolveType (Type type, Type? declaredType, System.Runtime.Serialization.DataContractResolver knownTypeResolver, out System.Xml.XmlDictionaryString? typeName, out System.Xml.XmlDictionaryString? typeNamespace);
abstract member TryResolveType : Type * Type * System.Runtime.Serialization.DataContractResolver * XmlDictionaryString * XmlDictionaryString -> bool
Public MustOverride Function TryResolveType (type As Type, declaredType As Type, knownTypeResolver As DataContractResolver, ByRef typeName As XmlDictionaryString, ByRef typeNamespace As XmlDictionaryString) As Boolean
Parameters
- type
- Type
The type to map.
- declaredType
- Type
The type declared in the data contract.
- knownTypeResolver
- DataContractResolver
The known type resolver.
- typeName
- XmlDictionaryString
The xsi:type name.
- typeNamespace
- XmlDictionaryString
The xsi:type namespace.
Returns
true
if mapping succeeded; otherwise, false
.
Examples
The following example shows an implementation of the TryResolveType method.
// Used at serialization
// Maps any Type to a new xsi:type representation
public override bool TryResolveType(Type type, Type declaredType, DataContractResolver knownTypeResolver, out XmlDictionaryString typeName, out XmlDictionaryString typeNamespace)
{
string name = type.Name;
string namesp = type.Namespace;
typeName = new XmlDictionaryString(XmlDictionary.Empty, name, 0);
typeNamespace = new XmlDictionaryString(XmlDictionary.Empty, namesp, 0);
if (!dictionary.ContainsKey(type.Name))
{
dictionary.Add(name, typeName);
}
if (!dictionary.ContainsKey(type.Namespace))
{
dictionary.Add(namesp, typeNamespace);
}
return true;
}
Remarks
If you want to use the known type resolution logic inside your implementation, a reference to it is passed in as the knownTypeResolver
parameter.
