Its only 77 lines so here it is
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using System.Xml.Serialization;
namespace tools
{
[XmlRoot("dictionary")]
public class SerializableDictionary<TKey, TValue>
: Dictionary<TKey, TValue>, IXmlSerializable
{
#region IXmlSerializable Members
public System.Xml.Schema.XmlSchema GetSchema()
{
return null;
}
public void ReadXml(System.Xml.XmlReader reader)
{
XmlSerializer keySerializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(TKey));
XmlSerializer valueSerializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(TValue));
bool wasEmpty = reader.IsEmptyElement;
reader.Read();
if (wasEmpty)
return;
while (reader.NodeType != System.Xml.XmlNodeType.EndElement)
{
reader.ReadStartElement("item");
reader.ReadStartElement("key");
TKey key = (TKey)keySerializer.Deserialize(reader);
reader.ReadEndElement();
reader.ReadStartElement("value");
TValue value = (TValue)valueSerializer.Deserialize(reader);
reader.ReadEndElement();
this.Add(key, value);
reader.ReadEndElement();
reader.MoveToContent();
}//while
reader.ReadEndElement();
} //ReadXml
public void WriteXml(System.Xml.XmlWriter writer)
{
XmlSerializer keySerializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(TKey));
XmlSerializer valueSerializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(TValue));
foreach (TKey key in this.Keys)
{
writer.WriteStartElement("item");
writer.WriteStartElement("key");
keySerializer.Serialize(writer, key);
writer.WriteEndElement();
writer.WriteStartElement("value");
TValue value = this[key];

I could send you an example of a serializable dictionary I created from
examples on line I don't have a book I could point you at I just did a lot
of searching on google to find the info.

Good morning listers,
Does anyone out there have pointers for serialization / deserialization of
generic collections in c#.
I wish to create xml for a defined generic collection.
Thanks for any pointers.
Rick
