GenericLinkShapeSerializer Class

GenericLinkShapeSerializer Constructor

Cannot be monikerized.

Cannot be monikerized.

This is the XML tag name used to serialize an instance of GenericLinkShape.

This method calculates a moniker to a given GenericLinkShape instance.

This method creates an instance of GenericLinkShape based on the tag currently pointed by the reader. The reader is guaranteed (by the caller) to be pointed at a serialized instance of GenericLinkShape.

This method creates a Moniker of GenericLinkShape based on the tag currently pointed by the reader.

A domain class can be monikerized in different ways: standard /qualifier/key mechanism, custom moniker, or element ID. If the domain class is serialized using standard /qualifier/key mechanism, this method returns the qualifier of the moniker; if the domain class uses other ways for monikerization, this method returns empty string.

Public Read() method that deserializes one GenericLinkShape instance from XML.

Read any additional element data associated with the element

Reads in child elements. We customize it here to skip the target ElementLink instance if it's not AllowDuplicates=true.

Read child elements defined on LinkShape.

This method deserializes all properties that are serialized as XML attributes.

Public ReadRootElement() method that deserializes a root-level element from XML. The difference between root-level element and the rest elements in the XML is that the root may carry additional information like schema, version, etc. The default implementation just calls Read() method, it's up to the derived implementations to do any additional checks.

Read child elements defined on ShapeElement.

Reset the serializer

This method creates a correct instance of GenericLinkShape based on the tag currently pointed by the reader. If the reader is positioned at a serialized GenericLinkShape, a new GenericLinkShape instance will be created in the given partition, otherwise null is returned.

This method creates a Moniker of the correct derived (including GenericLinkShape itself) instance of GenericLinkShape based on the tag currently pointed by the reader.

Calculate whether the BinaryLinkShape should serialize its relationship to the presented link using an Id or its source and target shapes.

Public Write() method that serializes one GenericLinkShape instance into XML.

Public Write() method that serializes the ModelElement instance associated with this serializer instance into XML. This method just calls Write() with no RootElementSettings.

Write any additional element data associated with the element

Writes out child elements. We customize it here to skip the target ElementLink instance if it's not AllowDuplicates=true.

Write child elements defined on LinkShape.

Public WriteMoniker() method that writes a monikerized GenericLinkShape instance into XML.

Write all properties that need to be serialized as XML attributes.

Public WriteRootElement() method that serializes a root-level element to XML. The difference between root-level element and the rest elements in the XML is that the root may carry additional information like schema, version, etc. The default implementation just calls Write() method with no RootElementSettings, it's up to the derived implementations to do any additional checks.

Write child elements defined on ShapeElement.
