Serializing/Deserializing to Database

I have a class, "MySavableClass." The class has one string property named
"MyID" and then a bunch of other properties.

Ideally, what I'd like to do is write a "Save()" and a "Restore()" method -
or probably static methods for this object that would work as follows:

private MySavableClass MyC = new MySavableClass();
MyC.MyID = "Class1";
MyC.SomeOtherProperty = 1234;

//The next line will cause the class "MyC" to be serialized and then written
//to a two column database tabe. Column 1 will be the ID column which,
//in this case, will be "Class1", and column 2 will be a Text/Memo column
//which will take the entire serialized object.
Success = MySavableClass.Save(MyC);

//Later, I should be able to do this...

private MySavableClass MyCRestored;
MyCRestored = MySavableClass.Restore("Class1");
if(MyCRestored == null)
//Restoration failed!
else
Writeln("MyCRestored.SomeOtherProperty = " +
MyCRestored.SomeOtherProperty.ToString());

etc., etc.

All of this doesn't seem that hard but I have a few questions:

1. Do I have to set up any meta-tagging on my calss to make it serializable
(it's a pretty simple class.

2. Which serialization method should I use if I want to save the data as
text to a database column?

Any other guidance you can provide will be much appreciated.

1) It should be tagged as Serializable
2) You could either use binary or XML serialization.

If you use binary use Convert.ToBase64 before inserting it to your database
and COnvert.FromBase64 when you have read the object. This step is not
required with XML

Thanks for this. Can youhelp me with the specific syntax for marking the
class "Serializable"?

One more little thing: I'm a little confused about how I get my hands on the
string that represents that serialized class so that I can pass it along to
write to the database.

If I do...
      Stream stream = File.Open("data.xml", FileMode.Create);
      SoapFormatter formatter = new SoapFormatter();

      formatter.Serialize(stream, obj);

I can wite it to a file. But how do I just get it into a string instead?

Use a MemoryStream
http://www.dotgnu.org/pnetlib-doc/System/IO/MemoryStream.html instead of a
FileStream it has a getbytes() method that will give you the relevant bytes.

For the serializable attribute .. it is just [Serializable]

Greg -

Forgive me for asking you to spoon-feed me this way but this thing is really
breaking my head---

So far, to serialize my object, I'm doing the following...

            BinaryFormatter formatter = new BinaryFormatter();
            MemoryStream MemStream = new MemoryStream();
            formatter.Serialize(MemStream, MyObj);

.... but here's where I get stuck because

1. I don't know how to do the Convert.ToBase64() on this MemoryStream and
2. Don't I have to turn this MemoryStream object into a String before I can
use it to fill the parameter of a SQL query (OleDbParam)? If so, how?

Thanks so much for your help!

Alex

MemStream.ToArray will create you a byte array that you can pass to the
COnvert.TOBase64 method

Hi Alex,

For serializing and derializing .net class object so as to persist them as
text in database, you can consider both XmlSerialization(pure xml string
based) or BinarySerialization(need to convert the serialized binary data
into string, such as base64 convertion). Here are some simple code snippet
demostrating on using both binary and XML serialization to persist and
restore the class instance:

=========binary serialize============

//serialize the class instance and store the result into a TextBox
private void btnSerialize_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            MySavableClass msc = new MySavableClass();

            msc.MyID = "id1";
            msc.Title = "default title";
            msc.Length = 100;

            BinaryFormatter bf = new BinaryFormatter();

            MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();

            bf.Serialize(ms, msc);

            byte[] bytes = ms.ToArray();

            string base64data = Convert.ToBase64String(bytes);

            textBox1.Text = base64data;

            ms.Close();

        }

//Deserialize the class instance from the text in the textbox
        private void btnDeserialize_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            byte[] bytes = Convert.FromBase64String(textBox1.Text);

            MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(bytes);

            ms.Position = 0;

            BinaryFormatter bf = new BinaryFormatter();

            object obj = bf.Deserialize(ms);

            ms.Close();

            MySavableClass msc = obj as MySavableClass;

            if (msc != null)
            {
                MessageBox.Show(
                    string.Format("MyID: {0}\r\nTitle: {1}\r\nLength: {2}",
                    msc.MyID,msc.Title,msc.Length)

In addition, you can have a look at the MSDN document about .net
serialization for further reference:

Hope this helps.
