Notes to Inheritors
When overridden in a derived class, this method returns true if the current value of the property is different from its default value. It looks for a default value by first looking for a DefaultValueAttribute. If the method finds this attribute, it compares the value of the attribute with the current value of the property. If this method cannot find a DefaultValueAttribute, it looks for a ShouldSerializeMyProperty method. If this method finds a ShouldSerializeMyProperty method, it invokes it. If this method cannot find a DefaultValueAttribute or a ShouldSerializeMyProperty method, it cannot create optimizations and it returns true.
