正在序列化的 class 中不存在 class 的序列化错误

Question

I'm trying to serialize data but a strange error occurs:

System.InvalidOperationException
  HResult=0x80131509
  Message=There was an error generating the XML document.
  Source=System.Xml
  StackTrace:

   at System.Windows.Forms.Control.ControlNativeWindow.WndProc(Message& m)
   at System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.DebuggableCallback(IntPtr hWnd, Int32 msg, IntPtr wparam, IntPtr lparam)

  This exception was originally thrown at this call stack:
    [External Code]

Inner Exception 1:
InvalidOperationException: You must implement a default accessor on Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JObject because it inherits from ICollection.

The way I'm trying to serialize the data:

private void Form1_FormClosing(object sender, FormClosingEventArgs e)
{
    XmlSerializer xmlSerializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(setting));
    xmlSerializer.Serialize(new FileStream(settings.Xml, FileMode.Create), settings);
    xmlSerializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(List<Station>));
    xmlSerializer.Serialize(new FileStream(settings.StationsXml, FileMode.Create), settings.Stations);
    xmlSerializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(List<Systems>));
    xmlSerializer.Serialize(new FileStream(settings.SystemsXml, FileMode.Create), settings.Systems); // error thrown here
}

Both of the Stations and Systems classes don't have any JObjects yet the error cites that I need a default accessor. I do use JObjects but not in those classes or even in the settings class except a JSON deserializer. Another strange thing that happens is the file suddenly cuts off at the same place each time:

...
          <Active_States>
            <id>80</id>
            <name>None</name>

        </active_states>

The first three objects seem to sterilize fine but it fails at the beginning of the fourth. Here are the two classes and subclasses: pastebin.com

Answer 1

Your model contains:

        public object[] pending_states { get; set; }
        public object[] recovering_states { get; set; }

Since those are the only non-obvious types in the data, I'm guessing that one (or both) of these is the culprit, containing some JObject data. Presumably: replace them with things that... don't .
