OnDeserializingAttribute Class

Definition

When applied to a method, specifies that the method is called during deserialization of an object in an object graph. The order of deserialization relative to other objects in the graph is non-deterministic.

public ref class OnDeserializingAttribute sealed : Attribute
[System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Method, Inherited=false)]
public sealed class OnDeserializingAttribute : Attribute
[System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Method, Inherited=false)]
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComVisible(true)]
public sealed class OnDeserializingAttribute : Attribute
[<System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Method, Inherited=false)>]
type OnDeserializingAttribute = class
    inherit Attribute
[<System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Method, Inherited=false)>]
[<System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComVisible(true)>]

Remarks

Use the OnDeserializingAttribute to set default values during deserialization. For example, if the type that you are deserializing does not contain a constructor, create a method to set values of any fields in the instance and apply the attribute to the method.

To use the OnDeserializingAttribute, the method must contain a StreamingContext parameter. The attribute marks the method to be called by the serialization infrastructure and the StreamingContext provides additional data about the type of serialization taking place.

Constructors

OnDeserializingAttribute()

Initializes a new instance of the OnDeserializingAttribute class.

Properties

TypeId

When implemented in a derived class, gets a unique identifier for this Attribute.

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.

Explicit Interface Implementations

_Attribute.GetIDsOfNames(Guid, IntPtr, UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr)

Maps a set of names to a corresponding set of dispatch identifiers.

(Inherited from Attribute)
_Attribute.GetTypeInfo(UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr)

Retrieves the type information for an object, which can be used to get the type information for an interface.

(Inherited from Attribute)
_Attribute.GetTypeInfoCount(UInt32)

Retrieves the number of type information interfaces that an object provides (either 0 or 1).

(Inherited from Attribute)
_Attribute.Invoke(UInt32, Guid, UInt32, Int16, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr)

Provides access to properties and methods exposed by an object.
