ISerializerFactoryConfig::Deserializer Method

HRESULT Deserializer([in] BSTR Type, [in] BSTR TypeNamespace, [in] VARIANT_BOOL ArrayOf, [in] VARIANT ComType, [in] BSTR ProgID);

This registers a new de-serializer for a particular XML type [or array of]. The de-serializer is responsible for converting the XML Stream into a concrete COM type. You can register a deserializer for an existing [custom or standard] XML type, and it will replace the existing de-serializer, for example this allows you to replace the standard array deserializer with one that deserializes arrays into a COM collection object, rather than a SAFEARRAY.

Parameters

Type

BSTR, [in]: The Xml Type name that this deserializer can deserialize

TypeNamespace

BSTR, [in]: The Xml Type namespace that this deserializer can deserialize

ArrayOf

VARIANT_BOOL, [in]: Does this deserialize a single instance of the type, or an array of the type ?

ComType

VARIANT, [in]: The resulting COM type following a successful deserialization

ProgID

BSTR, [in]: The ProgID of the deserializer to register
