Hi,
Can anyone help me on how to serialize an inherited datagridviewtextboxcell? I had created a custom cell in which I had incorporated several customized properties and save it to binary file.
<Serializable()> _
public class CustomTextboxCell
Inherits Windows.Forms.DataGridViewTextBoxCell
'code goes here
End Class
SaveFile:
Private Sub save()
For Each TempCell As Windows.Forms.DataGridViewRow In Me.DataGridViewX1.Rows
Dim xxx As Libraries.EntryCell = TempCell.Cells(0)
xy.Add(xxx.FieldName, xxx)
Next
Dim TempIO As New IO.FileStream("D:\config.mbp", IO.FileMode.Create, IO.FileAccess.Write)
Dim writeBinay As New IO.BinaryWriter(TempIO)
Dim TempByte As Byte() = ObjectToBytes(xy)
writeBinay.Write(TempByte)
writeBinay.Close()
End Sub
Public Function ObjectToBytes(ByVal CurrentObject As [Object]) As Byte()
Dim MStream As New IO.MemoryStream()
Dim BFormat As New Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary.BinaryFormatter()
Try
BFormat.Serialize(MStream, CurrentObject)
Return MStream.ToArray()
Catch e As Runtime.Serialization.SerializationException
Return Nothing
Finally
MStream.Close()
End Try
End Function
I am getting and error of "Type 'System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewTextBoxCell' in Assembly 'System.Windows.Forms, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' is not marked as serializable." upon saving it to binary file.
Thanks in advance.
