c# xml serialization : ignore a class

Question

I am using sgen.exe to generate a serializer for the classes of my project. Many classes have to be serizalized, and many others don't.

The attribute [XmlIgnore] doesn't works on classes, so is there a way to do it?

thanks

The only way I can think of is adding the XmlIgnore attribute to each property you do not want serialised. Not sure if sgen allows you to specify classes to ignore but I was having a look at this.

Hope that helps!

Thanks for the answer, but I have tried it and it doesn't works : sgen.exe still tries to build a serializer for the class. – Sylvain B. Aug 31 '15 at 11:14
