C# Saving an arraylist to a file?

Question

I have a simple program where I would like to save an arraylist to a file, so that when the program is restarted, it loads from the file to the arraylist in memory.

Is this possible in C#? Or do I need to itterate over the arraylist countaining my custom classes and in someway print them out?

Any tips on a correct way to do this?

Answer 2

是的，而不是ArrayList，而是使用List <T>并将数据存储在XML文件中。程序启动时，读取该XML文件。
