Scripting C# & .NET
1

Hi i´m try to convert a class :

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class SendInfo
{
    public int name = 0; //0 Pj;
    public string ship;
    public Vector3 posPj;
    public int wp;
    public int add;
}

to Byte[ ] . But y get this error :

10-20 23:08:09.612: I/Unity(25553): at System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer.Serialize (System.Xml.XmlWriter writer, System.Object o, System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializerNames
10-20 23:08:09.632: I/Unity(25553): InvalidOperationException: The type of the argument object ‘System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer’ is not primitive.

My code here:

void SendMessagePjMp ()
    {
        byte[] message;
        using (MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream())
        {
            XmlSerializer x = new XmlSerializer(typeof(SendInfo));
            x.Serialize (stream,x);
            message = stream.ToArray ();
        }
        PlayGamesPlatform.Instance.RealTime.SendMessage(false, idP2.ParticipantId, message);
    }

public void OnRealTimeMessageReceived(bool isReliable, string senderId, byte[] data)
    {
        XmlSerializer x = new XmlSerializer (typeof(SendInfo));
        using (MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream(data))
        {
            sendInfoPj2 =  (SendInfo) x.Deserialize (stream);
        }
        if(sendInfoPj2.name == 0)
        {
            posPj2 = sendInfoPj2.posPj;
            ship2 = sendInfoPj2.ship;
            wp2 = sendInfoPj2.wp;
            add2 = sendInfoPj2.add;
        }
    }
2 
x.Serialize(stream,x);

You just passed the XmlSerializer in to the Serialize method of XmlSerializer.

That would serialize itself.

You should be passing in the SendInfo object.

Thanks you very much ¡¡ This works :slight_smile:

x.Serialize(stream, SendInfo);
