How to serialize a protected property in wcf
- by Denis Rosca
Hello everyone,
I have to classes (Person and Address) that i need to send via wcf, the classes look like this:
public class PersoanaFizica :IExtensibleDataObject
{
[DataMember]
private Guid _id;
[DataMember(Name = "Id")]
protected virtual Guid Id
{
get { return _id; }
set { _id = value; }
}
private ExtensionDataObject _extensionData;
public virtual ExtensionDataObject ExtensionData
{
get
{
return _extensionData;
}
set
{
_extensionData = value;
}
}
private string _firstName;
[Searchable(PropertyName="FirstName")]
[DataMember]
public virtual string FirstName
{
get { return this._firstName; }
set { this._firstName = value; }
}
private string _lastName;
[Searchable(PropertyName="LastName")]
[DataMember]
public virtual string LastName
{
get { return this._lastName; }
set { this. _lastName = value; }
}
private Address _address;
[Searchable(PropertyName="Address")]
[DataMember]
public virtual Address Address
{
get { return this._address; }
set { this._address = value; }
}
}
public class Address : IExtensibleDataObject
{
[DataMember]
private Guid _id;
[DataMember]
public virtual Guid Id
{
get { return _id; }
set { _id = value; }
}
private ExtensionDataObject _extensionData;
public virtual ExtensionDataObject ExtensionData
{
get
{
return _extensionData;
}
set
{
_extensionData = value;
}
}
private string _country;
[Searchable(PropertyName="Country")]
[DataMember]
public virtual string Country
{
get { return this._country; }
set { this._country = value; }
}
// and some other properties related to the address
}
The problem is that when i try to send them via wcf, the client recieves the Id properties set to 00000-0000-00000-00000 or smth like this.
Any idea why this is happening? And how to serialize the proper values?
Thanks,Denis.
