XML Deserializing Line Feeds

[dk9]

I've serialize an object like this:

Dim MyName As String = "testing" & vbNewLine & "serialization"
Dim Formatter As New Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer(MyName)

Try
Dim fs As New FileStream(_FilePath, FileMode.Create)
Formatter.Serialize(fs, MyName)
fs.Close()
Catch ex As Exception

End Try



The created XML file is well writen, there's a line feed there.
But when I'm deserializing the object, the line just dissapears...
It returns "testingserialization"


Dim Formatter As New
Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer(GetType(String))

Try
Dim fs As New FileStream(_FilePath, FileMode.Create)
Formatter.Serialize(fs, MyName)
fs.Close()
Catch ex As Exception

End Try


What's going on here?!??!?!

If you are just trying to serilize text to something acceptable for xml why
don't you use System.Web.HttpUtility.HtmlEncode("some Text")
