更具体地说,当异常包含自定义对象时,这些对象本身可能是可序列化的,也可能不是。

举个例子:

public class MyException : Exception
{
    private readonly string resourceName;
    private readonly IList<string> validationErrors;

    public MyException(string resourceName, IList<string> validationErrors)
    {
        this.resourceName = resourceName;
        this.validationErrors = validationErrors;
    }

    public string ResourceName
    {
        get { return this.resourceName; }
    }

    public IList<string> ValidationErrors
    {
        get { return this.validationErrors; }
    }
}

如果这个异常被序列化和反序列化,两个自定义属性(ResourceName和ValidationErrors)将不会被保留。属性将返回null。

是否有通用的代码模式来实现自定义异常的序列化?


当前回答

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:

        {

            this.validationErrors = (IList<string>)info.GetValue("ValidationErrors", typeof(IList<string>));
        }

其他回答

在. net Core中,. net 5.0及以上版本不使用Serializable,因为微软遵循在BinaryFormatter中发现的安全威胁实践。

使用存储在数据集合中的示例

实现ISerializable,并遵循执行此操作的常规模式。

您需要用[Serializable]属性标记类,并添加对该接口的支持,还需要添加隐含的构造函数(在该页上有描述,搜索暗示构造函数)。您可以在文本下面的代码中看到它的实现示例。

为了补充上面的正确答案,我发现如果我将自定义属性存储在Exception类的Data集合中,就可以避免这种自定义序列化的事情。

例如:

[Serializable]
public class JsonReadException : Exception
{
    // ...

    public string JsonFilePath
    {
        get { return Data[@"_jsonFilePath"] as string; }
        private set { Data[@"_jsonFilePath"] = value; }
    }

    public string Json
    {
        get { return Data[@"_json"] as string; }
        private set { Data[@"_json"] = value; }
    }

    // ...
}

就性能而言,这可能比Daniel提供的解决方案效率更低,可能只适用于“整型”类型,如字符串和整数等。

尽管如此,这对我来说还是很容易理解的。

我不得不认为,想要序列化一个异常强烈地表明您对某些事情采取了错误的方法。这里的终极目标是什么?如果在两个进程之间传递异常,或者在同一个进程的不同运行之间传递异常,那么异常的大多数属性在另一个进程中是无效的。

在catch()语句中提取所需的状态信息并将其存档可能更有意义。

我想不出带有不可序列化成员的Exception的任何用例,但如果您避免尝试在GetObjectData和反序列化构造函数中序列化/反序列化它们,应该是可以的。还要用[NonSerialized]属性标记它们,这更像是文档,因为您自己实现了序列化。
