AddValue(String, Object, Type)

Adds a value into the SerializationInfo store, where value is associated with name and is serialized as being of Typetype.

public:
 void AddValue(System::String ^ name, System::Object ^ value, Type ^ type);
public void AddValue (string name, object? value, Type type);
public void AddValue (string name, object value, Type type);
member this.AddValue : string * obj * Type -> unit
Public Sub AddValue (name As String, value As Object, type As Type)

Parameters

name
String

The name to associate with the value, so it can be deserialized later.

value
Object

The value to be serialized. Any children of this object will automatically be serialized.

type
Type

The Type to associate with the current object. This parameter must always be the type of the object itself or of one of its base classes.

Exceptions

If name or type is null.

A value has already been associated with name.

Remarks

The assigned type is always the type of the object, or one of its parents.

If two values are added with names that differ only by case, no exception will be thrown, which is not a recommended practice. However, adding two values with the exact same name will cause the SerializationException to be thrown.
