c＃可序列化类-WPF MainWindow发生异常

Question

I have a WPF application which is hooking into a DLL that I am also writing. The DLL scans a data folder of a 3rd Party application and handles all the interpretation of data within. The WPF is to provide a nice GUI on top of that; I separated them because it may be necessary in the future to write a command line interface for it too.

The scanning of the data folder takes some time so I wanted to save the state of the object (a Repository) and open that instead if the data folder has been scanned and retains the same 'Last Modified' state. I have marked the Repository object as [Serializable] however when I attempt to save the state (from either the WPF or the DLL) I get an exception that the WPF MainWindow is not [Serializable].

If I read the created .dat file it does have some (not sure if all) information from that class.

I don't understand why it would be trying to save any information about the WPF windows. I have tried to mark the window as [Serializable] just to try however that class does not allow it. Searching around the web had me looking into AppDomains since I'm loading a DLL along with the application but that is a little over my head. Below is how I am currently trying to implement it. Edit: The call to serialize is at the bottom of the WPF code.

I should mention that I created an inline class within the WPF namespace and was able to successfully serialize that to a file.

Any help is appreciated.

This is the DLL:

namespace HPOO_XML_Parser
{
[Serializable]
public class HPOORepository
{

    string _version;
    string _path;
    string _library;
    string _uuid;


    [NonSerialized]
    BackgroundWorker bWorker = new BackgroundWorker();
    [NonSerialized]
    XElement _xmlRepo;      


    int _nodeCount;
    List<Node> nodes;
    ...
    Rest of properties and methods
}

And the WPF which calls it

namespace HPOO_Repository_Scanner
{
/// <summary>
/// Interaction logic for MainWindow.xaml
/// </summary>
public partial class MainWindow : Window
{
    HPOORepository repo;

    public MainWindow()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
        StatusVisibility(); // Simply hides progress bar/cancel button
    }

    private void OpenRepository(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {

        string ooHome;
        using (FolderBrowserDialog browser = new FolderBrowserDialog())
        {
            ooHome = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("ICONCLUDE_HOME");
            if (ooHome != null)
            {
                browser.SelectedPath = ooHome;
            }
            browser.ShowNewFolderButton = false;
            browser.Description = "Select a repository to open...";

            if (browser.ShowDialog() == System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK)
            {
                try
                {
                    repo = new HPOORepository(browser.SelectedPath);
                }
                catch (Exception ex)
                {
                    System.Windows.MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "Invalid Repository Selected", MessageBoxButton.OK, MessageBoxImage.Error);

                }
            }
            repo.ProgressChanged += new ProgressChangedEventHandler(repo_ProgressChanged);

            prgStatus.Maximum = 100;

            repo.ReadRepository();

        }

    }
private void mnuSave_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
        SaveRepo(repo);
    }

    public void SaveRepo(object repository)
    {
        BinaryFormatter binFormat = new BinaryFormatter();

        using (Stream fStream = new FileStream("test" + ".dat",
            FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write, FileShare.None))
        {
            binFormat.Serialize(fStream, repository);
        }
    }

Edit: And finally the exception:

System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationException was unhandled

Answer 1

I'm assuming that you are using the XML serialiser. You should show the serialising code. Also when getting an exception, show the exception and stack trace. Its a lot easier to determine context with this info.

If so, you must use the [XmlIgnore] not the [NonSerialized] attribute.

Answer 2

I feel like such an idiot; I was able to figure it out this morning.

I had to detach the ProgressChanged event handler from my repo object.

It was attached at object creation

repo.ProgressChanged += new ProgressChangedEventHandler(repo_ProgressChanged);

And now removed before saving the object state

private void mnuSave_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
  repo.ProgressChanged -= repo_ProgressChanged;
  SaveRepo(repo);
}

Hope that helps anyone else who runs into the same issue.
