I'm looking for a key/value pair object that I can include in a web service.
I tried using .NET's System.Collections.Generic.KeyValuePair<> class, but it does not properly serialize in a web service. In a web service, the Key and Value properties are not serialized, making this class useless, unless someone knows a way to fix this.
Is there any other generic class that can be used for this situation?
I'd use .NET's System.Web.UI.Pair class, but it uses Object for its types. It would be nice to use a Generic class, if only for type safety.

Basic and custom serialization Binary and XML serialization can be performed in two ways, basic and custom. Basic serialization uses . NET to automatically serialize the object.
Serialization in C# is the process of converting an object into a stream of bytes to store the object to memory, a database, or a file. Its main purpose is to save the state of an object in order to be able to recreate it when needed. The reverse process is called deserialization.
No. The type information is serialized, along with state. In order to deserialize the data, your program will need to have access to the assemblies containing the types (including methods).
Just define a struct/class.
[Serializable] public struct KeyValuePair<K,V> { public K Key {get;set;} public V Value {get;set;} } If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
