Remarks

Use the OnDeserializingAttribute class to set default values during deserialization. For example, if the type that you are deserializing does not contain a constructor, create a method to set values of any fields in the instance and apply the attribute to the method.

To use the OnDeserializingAttributeclass, the method must contain a StreamingContext parameter. The attribute marks the method to be called by the serialization infrastructure, and the StreamingContext provides additional data about the type of serialization taking place. The following code shows an example how to apply OnDeserializingAttribute to a method.

\\ C#
[OnDeserializingAttribute()]
internal void RunThisMethod(StreamingContext context)
{ 
    // Code not shown.
}
' Visual Basic
<OnDeserializingAttribute()> _
Private Sub RunThisMethod(context As StreamingContext)
    ' Code not shown.
End Sub
NoteNote:

In your code, you can use the word OnDeserializing instead of the longer OnDeserializingAttribute.
