I would like to serialize my .NET class into an AutoCAD drawing database, so it is saved into the drawing, and I can recreate my class again (deserialize it), when the drawing is reopened. How could I do it?

Solution

You could use the .NET serialization technique to serialize your class into a binary stream and then you can save it in the drawing as a bunch of binary chunks. You could save the ResultBuffer to an object's XData or into an Xrecord.Data of an entity or an item in the Named Objects Dictionary (NOD). DevNote TS2563 tells you what the difference is between using XData and Xrecord. If you are saving it into an XData, then the ResultBuffer needs to start with a registered application name. Here is a sample which shows this:

using System;
using System.Runtime.Serialization;
using System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary;
using System.IO;
using System.Security.Permissions;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime;
using acApp = Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.Application;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.DatabaseServices;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.EditorInput;
[assembly: CommandClass(typeof(MyClassSerializer.Commands))]
namespace MyClassSerializer
{
// We need it to help with deserialization
public sealed class MyBinder : SerializationBinder
{
public override System.Type BindToType(
string assemblyName,
string typeName)
{
return Type.GetType(string.Format("{0}, {1}",
typeName, assemblyName));
}
}
// Helper class to write to and from ResultBuffer
public class MyUtil
{
const int kMaxChunkSize = 127;
public static ResultBuffer StreamToResBuf(
MemoryStream ms, string appName)
{
ResultBuffer resBuf =
new ResultBuffer(
new TypedValue(
(int)DxfCode.ExtendedDataRegAppName, appName));
for (int i = 0; i < ms.Length; i += kMaxChunkSize)
{
int length = (int)Math.Min(ms.Length - i, kMaxChunkSize);
byte[] datachunk = new byte[length];
ms.Read(datachunk, 0, length);
resBuf.Add(
new TypedValue(
(int)DxfCode.ExtendedDataBinaryChunk, datachunk));
}
return resBuf;
}
public static MemoryStream ResBufToStream(ResultBuffer resBuf)
{
MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();
TypedValue[] values = resBuf.AsArray();
// Start from 1 to skip application name
for (int i = 1; i < values.Length; i++)
{
byte[] datachunk = (byte[])values.Value;
ms.Write(datachunk, 0, datachunk.Length);
}
ms.Position = 0;
return ms;
}
