Question

I wasn’t expecting to come across this error. I imagine I’m doing something wrong somewhere else.

I have an MVVM application.

My model can serialise its self using a BinaryFormatter. This was working fine.

Today I added in an event handler to my model, and the viewmodel that contains the model subscribes to this event.

Now when I try and serialise the model I get an error because my viewmodel isn’t serialisable (by design).

I am sure it’s down to the subscription to the event, because I’ve removed the subscription (and only that) and serialisation works again.

I can’t apply the [NonSerialized] attribute to the handler because it’s not a field.

It there a way around this issue?

Answer 1

you can do this:

[field:NonSerialized]
public event EventHandler MyEvent;
