Disable serialization in the run time

[alanchinese]

Using attribute "NonSerialized" on certain members of a class can disable serialization/deserialization.

I am wondering if I can change this attribute in the run time because sometimes I need these members to be deserialized, however sometimes I don't.

I can duplicate the class but maintaining two similar classes is a pain.

Thanks.

You could choose to implement the ISerializable interface yourself - that way you would have exact control over what did and didn't get serialized at run time.
