I am trying to write a class in C# with [Serializable()] mark. Then I noticed that there are some situations the NonSerializedAttribute mark is needed.

The event delegate could not be serialized
Constant member, such as NonSerialized attribute on a constant
Something sensitive data that need to be prevented the serialization.

I am curious about when should I use [NonSerializedAttribute()] in other conditions besides these rules?

Any comments or suggestions are welcome.

When you don't want something `serialized`, you will know when you need it – TheGeneral Sep 07 '20 at 05:50
"Indicates that a field of a serializable class should not be serialized". So, whenever something should not be serialized (e.g. instance specific data) – Biesi Sep 07 '20 at 05:50
