基本实现，没有自定义属性
SerializableExceptionWithoutCustomProperties.cs:
namespace SerializableExceptions
{
using System;
using System.Runtime.Serialization;
[Serializable]
// Important: This attribute is NOT inherited from Exception, and MUST be specified
// otherwise serialization will fail with a SerializationException stating that
// "Type X in Assembly Y is not marked as serializable."
public class SerializableExceptionWithoutCustomProperties : Exception
{
public SerializableExceptionWithoutCustomProperties()
{
}
public SerializableExceptionWithoutCustomProperties(string message)
: base(message)
{
}
public SerializableExceptionWithoutCustomProperties(string message, Exception innerException)
: base(message, innerException)
{
}
// Without this constructor, deserialization will fail
protected SerializableExceptionWithoutCustomProperties(SerializationInfo info, StreamingContext context)
: base(info, context)
{
}
}
}
完全实现，具有自定义属性
一个自定义的可序列化异常(MySerializableException)和一个派生的密封异常(MyDerivedSerializableException)的完整实现。
关于这个实现的要点总结如下:
You must decorate each derived class with the [Serializable] attribute —
This attribute is not inherited from the base class, and if it is not specified, serialization will fail with a SerializationException stating that "Type X in Assembly Y is not marked as serializable."
You must implement custom serialization. The [Serializable] attribute alone is not enough — Exception implements ISerializable which means your derived classes must also implement custom serialization. This involves two steps:
Provide a serialization constructor. This constructor should be private if your class is sealed, otherwise it should be protected to allow access to derived classes.
Override GetObjectData() and make sure you call through to base.GetObjectData(info, context) at the end, in order to let the base class save its own state.
SerializableExceptionWithCustomProperties.cs:

[Serializable]
// Important: This attribute is NOT inherited from Exception, and MUST be specified
// otherwise serialization will fail with a SerializationException stating that
// "Type X in Assembly Y is not marked as serializable."
