.net - 使自定义 .NET 异常可序列化的正确方法是什么？

Question

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，也可能不是可序列化的。

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; }
    }
}

如果此异常被序列化和反序列化，则两个自定义属性(ResourceName 和 ValidationErrors)将不会被保留。这些属性将返回 null。

是否有通用的代码模式来实现自定义异常的序列化？

Answer 1

基本实现，没有自定义属性

SerializedExceptionWithoutCustomProperties.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)
        {
        }
    }
}

完整实现，具有自定义属性

自定义可序列化异常 (MySerializedException) 和派生密封 异常 (MyDerivedSerializedException) 的完整实现。

有关此实现的要点总结如下:

1. 您必须使用[Serialized]属性装饰每个派生类 - 此属性不是从基类继承的，如果未指定，序列化将失败，并出现 SerializationException，指出“程序集 Y 中的类型 X 未标记为可序列化。”
2. 您必须实现自定义序列化。仅使用 [Serializing] 属性是不够的 — Exception 实现 ISerialized，这意味着您的派生类还必须实现自定义序列化。这涉及两个步骤:
   1. 提供序列化构造函数。如果您的类是密封的，则此构造函数应为私有(private)，否则应 protected 以允许访问派生类。
   2. 重写 GetObjectData() 并确保最后调用 base.GetObjectData(info, context)，以便让基类保存自己的数据状态。
