如何在c#中序列化/反序列化不可变列表类型

标签: c# .net serialization immutability datacontractserializer

如果我定义了一个类

[DataContract()]
class MyObject {
    [DataMember()]
    ImmutableList<string> Strings { get; private set}
}

ImmutableList<T>类型来自immutables库https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.Bcl.Immutable。请注意,类ImmutableList没有默认构造函数或可变的Add方法。将内容添加到列表中即可使用表单。

myList = myList.Add("new string");

我是否可以为.NET序列化机制添加一些自定义支持以支持此类型并向其显示如何对其进行反序列化?

目前刚刚反序列化时会跳过该集合,但可以将其序列化。

通过IDataContractSurrogate界面还有另一种干净的方法。 DataContractSerializer允许您为非可序列化对象提供代理。以下是ImmutableList<T>的示例和测试用例。它使用反射,可能可以由比我更聪明的人优化,但现在就是。

                          );
                    serializer.WriteObject(writer, obj);
                    writer.Flush();
                    memoryStream.Position = 0;
                    return reader.ReadToEnd();
                }
            }

        public static T Load<T>(Stream data)
        {
            DataContractSerializer ser = new DataContractSerializer

            {
                return Load<T>(stream);
            }
        }

        [Fact]
        public void ShouldWork()
        {
            var o = new FixtureType();

            var s = ToXML(o);

            var oo = Load<FixtureType>(s);

            oo.Nodes.Count().Should().Be(3);
            var names = oo.Nodes.Select(n => n.Name).ToList();
            names.ShouldAllBeEquivalentTo(new[]{"A", "B", "C"});

        }

    }

执行此操作的一种方法是使用代理可变列表并使用OnSerializing和OnDeserialized挂钩

[DataContract()]
class MyObject {

    public ImmutableList<string> Strings { get; private set}

    [DataMember(Name="Strings")]
    private List<String> _Strings;

    [OnSerializing()]
    public void OnSerializing(StreamingContext ctxt){
        _Strings = Strings.ToList();
    }

    [OnDeserialized()]
    public void OnDeserialized(StreamingContext ctxt){
        Strings = ImmutableList<string>.Empty.AddRange(_Strings);
    }
}

这不是超级漂亮,但正如Marc Gravell在他的回答中指出的那样, DataContract序列化程序在不可变集合方面被打破了,并且没有简单的钩子来教它如何在没有上述类型的黑客的情况下表现。

DataContract序列化程序没有损坏。有一种方法可以将代理人挂钩。请参阅这个单独的答案,显示另一种技术。

答案 2 :(得分:4)

嘿;我可以想象这里发生了什么...生成的代码可能正在做(释义):

var list = obj.Strings;
while(CanReadNextItem()) {
    list.Add(ReadNextItem());
}

问题是BCL不可变API每次都要求你捕获结果,即

var list = obj.Strings;
while(CanReadNextItem()) {
    list = list.Add(ReadNextItem());
}
obj.Strings = list; // the private set is not a problem for this

预先存在的列表反序列化代码不能以这种方式工作,因为从未需要 - 事实上,Add有许多不同的实现,其中一些返回非void结果,需要忽略。

缺少非公共构造函数也可能会让它感到不安,但如果这是主要问题,我会在尝试创建非空列表时期望异常。

当然,在性能方面,list = list.Add(...) API 可能不是最适合使用(尽管它应该有效)。< / p>

我最近在这个主题的博客上(在protobuf-net的背景下,现在已经更新以适应这些集合类型):http://marcgravell.blogspot.co.uk/2013/09/fun-with-immutable-collections.html希望这篇博客文章能解释为什么这些差异意味着它不会与现有的序列化技术很好地配合,以及如何更新序列化库以适应这种情况。

要直接回答这个问题,我会说答案很简单:因为尚未对DataContractSerializer 进行支持不可变集合所需的更改。我不知道是否有计划解决这个问题。但是:我高兴地宣布:“在protobuf-net中工作”; p
