Hi,

Just wondering is there any paticular reason why the XmlSerializer class is
not in the
System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters namespace. Isnt the role the
XmlSerializer class the same as the BinaryFormatter etc?
 
They're similar, but not really the same. XmlSerializer only gets the
public members whereas BinaryFormatter creates a full object graph, for
example.
