How can I ignore a property when serializing using the DataContractSerializer?

Question

I am using .NET 3.5SP1 and DataContractSerializer to serialize a class. In SP1, they changed the behavior so that you don\'t have to include DataContract

Answer 1

Try marking the field with [NonSerialized()] attribute. This will tell the serializer to ignore the field.
