hi
i have an object of a class of mine that i serialize and save in database. to serialize i use binnary formatter and serialize function.
one of the properties of the object in an UltraDataSource. the problem is that when serializing the object i get exception
it some how cant serialize the UltraDataSource although the ultraDataSource has function save as binary.
is there a way to serialize the ultra data source with the binary formatter ans not the ultra data source save as binary?
because i want to serialize the complete object and not serialize the object without the datasource and the datasource - so i can save all data in one column in database and not 2,
thanks!
the problem is that i
Hi,
The Save and load methods on the UltraDataSource save the data structure and possibly the data. They don't save the UltraDataSource object itself. The UltraDataSource component class is not run-time serializable, so I don't think what you are trying to do will work.
I think what you would have to do is use a TypeConverter attribute on your UltraDataSource property and hook it up yourself in code to either an existing UltraDataSource or else create a new one and load the data and structure into it from a file.
