2010-02-26 Robert Jordan * ObjectReader.cs (ReadType, GetDeserializationType): Add throwOnError parameter that specifies whether to throw an exception if the type/assembly is not found. * ObjectReader.cs (ReadTypeMetadata): Ignore unresolvable types while reading the type info. Fixes #430583. * ObjectReader.cs (GetDeserializationType): Rethrow caught exceptions as SerializationExceptions. 2009-10-31 Sebastien Pouliot * BinaryCommon.cs: Disable MONO_REFLECTION_SERIALIZER override for Moonlight plugin. 2009-09-30 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier * BinaryFormatter.cs: NoCheckDeserialize() was using PeekChar() on a reader when it should only read 1 byte. Also BinaryReader.PeekChar() tries to set the position of hte stream back to where it was before the read, which does not work well with broken Stream implementations like BZip2InputStream (reports CanSeek is true when it really can't seek). Now we do a Read() and then pass the value we read on to the next methods. * MessageFormatter.cs: * ObjectReader.cs: added overloads that take a BinaryElement instead of reading it from the reader. Only for the methods used in NoCheckDeserialize. Fixes bug #503435. 2009-03-29 Zoltan Varga * CodeGenerator.cs: Add synchronization as SRE is not thread safe. 2008-09-17 Robert Jordan > * ObjectReader.cs (ReadTypeMetadata): Replace the check for ISerializable with something less `reflective'. Fixes #421664. 2008-06-27 Andreas Nahr * BinaryFormatter.cs: Fix parameter name 2008-04-26 Jb Evain * CodeGenerator.cs: replace usage of new Type [0] by Type.EmptyTypes. Found with Gendarme. 2008-04-02 Andreas Nahr * BinaryFormatter.cs: Fix parameter names 2007-08-25 Robert Jordan * ObjectReader.cs, ObjectWriter.cs, CodeGenerator.cs: Use DateTime.From/ToBinary. Fixes #82400. 2007-08-25 Alan McGovern * ObjectReader.cs, ObjectWriter.cs, CodeGenerator.cs: Reverted fix for #82400. 2007-08-25 Robert Jordan * ObjectReader.cs, ObjectWriter.cs, CodeGenerator.cs: Use DateTime.From/ToBinary. Fixes #82400. 2007-08-23 Robert Jordan * ObjectReader.cs, ObjectReader.cs: Map between System.MonoType[] and MS.NET's System.RuntimeType[]. * ObjectReader.cs (ReadType): When a type couldn't be found, emit a more useful exception. 2007-05-03 Dick Porter * BinaryFormatter.cs: Update to 2.0 profile 2006-12-25 Robert Jordan * binary_serialization_format.htm: Update the NET_2_0 format. * BinaryCommon.cs: MethodFlags is actually an int32. Add NET_2_0 flags. * MessageFormatter.cs: Add support for generic method arguments. * ObjectWriter.cs, ObjectReader.cs: Map between System.MonoType and MS.NET's System.RuntimeType. 2006-12-01 Lluis Sanchez Gual * MessageFormatter.cs: Include the logical context in the message when throwing an exception. Fixes a compatibility issue with MS.NET. 2006-10-29 Robert Jordan * ObjectWriter.cs, ObjectReader [NET_2_0]: Use the SerializationObjectManager. 2006-09-05 Raja R Harinath Fix #79159 * ObjectWriter.cs (WritePrimitiveTypeArray) [NET_2_0]: Encode the 'Kind' of each DateTime. * ObjectReader.cs (ReadArrayOfPrimitiveType) [NET_2_0]: Decode the 'Kind' of each DateTime. 2005-12-07 Sebastien Pouliot * BinaryFormatter.cs: Implemented UnsafeDeserialize and UnsafeDeserializeMethodResponse methods. Fixes last TODO in this namespace (for both 1.1 and 2.0 profiles). 2005-12-07 Lluis Sanchez Gual * ObjectReader.cs: Added null check in GetDeserializationType. Patch by Ben Maurer. Fixes bug #69666. 2005-12-01 Sebastien Pouliot * BinaryFormatter.cs: Added a demand for SerializationFormatter on Serialize method (to make some CAS test work correctly). 2005-05-26 Ben Maurer * CodeGenerator.cs: Move module creation to cctor to kill double checked locking and typeof locking. 2005-05-17 Lluis Sanchez Gual * CodeGenerator.cs: Don't generate debug info here. 2005-05-09 Lluis Sanchez Gual * ObjectWriter.cs: * CodeGenerator.cs: No need to add the class for inherited fields, since FieldInfo objects returned by the GetSerializableMembers method will already include the class name if needed. 2005-03-23 Lluis Sanchez Gual * BinaryCommon.cs: Added helper method for swapping bytes. * ObjectReader.cs: * ObjectWriter.cs: Implemented serialization of arrays of primitive types using Buffer.BlockCopy to create byffers of data that is written/ read in a single call. It's much faster now. 2005-03-01 Lluis Sanchez Gual * BinaryCommon.cs: Found the meaning of two unknown binary elements. * CodeGenerator.cs: Derive generated classes from ClrTypeMetadata instead of TypeMetadata. Added writeTypes parameter to WriteTypeData(). * ObjectWriter.cs: Use type and assembly names as keys for the type and assembly caches. This is needed since ISerializable types can provide fake type names (which are mapped to real types by a binder on deserialization). Implemented support for BinaryFormatter.TypeFormat. * BinaryFormatter.cs, MessageFormatter.cs: Implemented support for TypeFormat property. * ObjectReader.cs: Added support for objects serialized without member type information. This fixes bug #73114. If a binder return null, use the default way of loading the type. 2005-02-25 Lluis Sanchez Gual * ObjectReader.cs: In ReadArrayOfPrimitiveType, added a specific read loop for each type. It's much faster and avoids value boxings. 2005-01-10 Lluis Sanchez Gual * BinaryCommon.cs: IntPtr is not a primitive type in the serialization world. This fixes bug #70757. 2004-12-15 Lluis Sanchez Gual * ObjectReader.cs: Use GetField instead of GetMembers. Properties can't be serialized, so it makes no sense to use GetMembers. 2004-12-08 Zoltan Varga * CodeGenerator.cs: Call new DefineInternalDynamicAssembly method to prevent a race condition in the setting of the CorlibInternal flag. 2004-12-06 Zoltan Varga * CodeGenerator.cs: Mark the created assembly builder as internal. 2004-11-29 Lluis Sanchez Gual * CodeGenerator.cs: Addded EnumToUnderlying method to get the underlying type of an enum. This fixes bug #69753. 2004-07-02 Lluis Sanchez Gual * BinaryCommon.cs: Added CheckSerializable method. * ObjectWriter.cs: Check for type serializability even for members with null values. 2004-05-29 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier * ObjectWriter.cs: reduce contention in GetObjectData. 2004-05-14 Vladimir Vukicevic * binary_serialization_format.htm: renamed filename from having spaces to _'s (checked with lluis) 2004-05-13 Lluis Sanchez Gual * ObjectWriter.cs: Fixed and Simplified WriteGenericArray and WriteSingleDimensionArrayElements. This also fixes bug #58345. 2004-05-03 Lluis Sanchez Gual * MessageFormatter.cs: In the all-are-primitive case, serialize Args, not OutArgs. 2004-04-28 Lluis Sanchez Gual * MessageFormatter.cs: Serialize Args, not OutArgs, like in MS.NET. 2004-04-26 Lluis Sanchez Gual * ObjectReader.cs, ObjectWriter.cs: FIXME cleaning. 2004-04-20 Lluis Sanchez Gual * CodeGenerator.cs, ObjectReader.cs, ObjectWriter.cs: Serialize decimals as strings, like in MS.NET. This fixes bug #57186. 2004-02-23 Lluis Sanchez Gual * BinaryCommon.cs: Added UseReflectionSerialization property. * CodeGenerator.cs, ObjectWriter.cs: When serializing the name of an inherited field, prefix the name with the class name. This fixes #54439. Moved check for reflection serialization variable to BinaryCommon. 2004-02-17 Lluis Sanchez Gual * ObjectWriter.cs: Factorized some serialization code in new classes, so it is now possible to use fast IL generated classes that use direct access to class fields instead of using reflection. * CodeGenerator.cs: New file. Has several methods used by ObjectWriter to generate serialization code. 2004-02-05 Lluis Sanchez Gual * ObjectWriter.cs: Get the assembly of a member from the member's type, not from the type of the value, because that is the type written in the metadata section of the object. 2003-12-23 Lluis Sanchez Gual * ObjectReader.cs: Field names can include the type name if the field belongs to a base type. Take this into account. 2003-11-26 Lluis Sanchez Gual * BinaryFormatter.cs: Added missing methods. 2003-11-20 Lluis Sanchez Gual * BinaryFormatter.cs, MessageFormatter.cs, ObjectReader.cs: Added support for TypeFilter property. 2003-11-16 Lluis Sanchez Gual * BinaryFormatter.cs, MessageFormatter.cs, ObjectWriter.cs: Implemented support for AssemblyFormat property. 2003-11-12 Lluis Sanchez Gual * ObjectReader.cs, ObjectWriter.cs: Changed some GetType calls to "is" checks. 2003-07-28 Duncan Mak * BinaryFormatter.cs (WriteBinaryHeader): changed from public to private. 2003-07-25 Lluis Sanchez Gual * MessageFormatter.cs: WriteMethodCall(): It must write all parameters, including ref and out. 2003-07-24 Lluis Sanchez Gual * ObjectReader.cs, ObjectWriter.cs, BinaryCommon.cs: Fixed bug #45970. 2003-07-17 Lluis Sanchez Gual * ObjectReader.cs: Keep MemberInfo members in type's metadata object, so it is not necessary to query them for every object. * ObjectWriter.cs: If the value being serialized is a value type (not boxed) then there is no need to register it in the ObjectIDGenerator, because it is not possible to have two references to the same value type object. 2003-05-13 Lluis Sanchez Gual * ObjectReader.cs: Changed signature of ReadObjectGraph, so now it returns the deserialized object and the headers. * MessageFormatter.cs: The result of the call to the HeaderHandler delegate is now interpreted as the uri of the target object. This seems to be MS.NET behavior. * BinaryFormatter.cs: Deserialize now calls the HeaderHandler delegate, if provided. 2003-02-25 Lluis Sanchez Gual * BinaryFormatter.cs: Implemented support for binders. * MessageFormatter.cs: Implemented support for binders. * ObjectReader.cs: Implemented support for binders. 2003-02-04 Lluis Sanchez Gual * MessageFormatter.cs: Fixed bug in serialization of arguments. * ObjectReader.cs: Fixed bug causing array of structs to fail. 2003-02-11 Patrik Torstensson * ObjectReader.cs: Fixed root object bug causing object reader to return root object before fixup.
