I need to perform deep cloning on my complex object model. What do you think is the best way to do that in .Net?

Answer 1

If you are running code in a Partial Trust environment such as the Rackspace Cloud you will likely be restricted from using the BinaryFormatter. The XmlSerializer can be used instead.

public static T DeepClone(T obj)
{
    using (var ms = new MemoryStream())
    {
        XmlSerializer xs = new XmlSerializer(typeof(T));
        xs.Serialize(ms, obj);
        ms.Position = 0;

        return (T)xs.Deserialize(ms);
    }
}
