CanDeserialize does not work with generated assemblies using sgen.exe

hi


i have following example code demonstrate problem.

using system.xml;  using system.xml.serialization;    namespace consoleapplication1  {  	public class program  	{  		public static void main(string[] args)  		{  			xmlserializer serializer = new xmlserializer(typeof(example));  			xmlwriter writer = xmlwriter.create("test.xml");  			example input = new example { text = "test" };    			serializer.serialize(writer, input);  			writer.close();    			xmlreader reader = xmlreader.create("test.xml");    			bool candeserialize = serializer.candeserialize(reader);  			example result = (example)serializer.deserialize(reader);  		}    		[xmlroot("example", namespace = "http://tempuri.org/example")]  		public class example  		{  			[xmlattribute("text")]  			public string text { get; set; }  		}  	}  }

if run code, value of candeserialize true (like should be).

if add a post build step speeds xmlserializer constructor (and generates serialization assemblies on compile time) candeserialize method not working anymore. return false, example object still deserialized correctly.

my post build step looks this:
"[path sgen.exe]\sgen.exe" "$(targetpath)" /force

i tried sgen.exe windows 6.0a sdk (version: 2.0.50727.3038) , 1 windows 6.1 sdk (version: 2.0.50727.1432).
i'm using vs2008 , .net framework 3.5 sp1.

did wrong or bug?

hi,

known bug. not sure if s fixed in .net 4.0 though

https://connect.microsoft.com/visualstudio/feedback/viewfeedback.aspx?feedbackid=365862

workaround given there :

var factory = new xmlserializerfactory();
var serializer = factory.createserializer(typeof(t));

able reproduce issue , workaround suggested above seems working.
