using System.IO; using System.Runtime.Serialization; using System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary; // A sample class to serialize [Serializable] class MyClass { public int MyInt { get; set; } public string MyString { get; set; } } // Serialize an object var obj = new MyClass { MyInt = 42, MyString = "Hello world" }; var formatter = new BinaryFormatter(); using (var stream = new MemoryStream()) { var context = new StreamingContext(StreamingContextStates.File, "mydata.dat"); formatter.Serialize(stream, obj, context); byte[] data = stream.ToArray(); } // Deserialize an object using (var stream = new MemoryStream(data)) { var context = new StreamingContext(StreamingContextStates.File, "mydata.dat"); var obj2 = (MyClass)formatter.Deserialize(stream, context); }In this example, a sample class `MyClass` is created and then serialized to a binary format using the BinaryFormatter class. The StreamingContext is created with a state of StreamingContextStates.File and a file name of "mydata.dat". This context is then passed to the Serialize method to provide additional information about the serialization process. When deserializing the object, the same context is passed to the Deserialize method to ensure that the object is properly reconstructed. Package library: System.Runtime.Serialization.
