Name

FormatterTypeStyle

Synopsis

This enumeration controls how type information is specified for members. TypesAlways specifies that type information be placed in the serialization stream for all object members. The default, TypesWhenNeeded, places type information in the stream for the following: object arrays, members of type System.Object, and nonprimitive value types (such as structs and enums) that implement the ISerializable interface. XsdString can be bitwise-ORed with another option to specify that strings are represented with the XSD format instead of the SOAP format.

public enum FormatterTypeStyle {
   TypesWhenNeeded = 0,
   TypesAlways = 1,
   XsdString = 2
}
