Programmatically set properties to exclude from serialization

Question

Is it possible to programmatically set that you want to exclude a property from serialization?

Example:

• When de-serializing, I want to load up an ID fi

Answer 1

If you are serializing to XML, you can use XMLIgnore

As in:

class SomeClass
{
  [XmlIgnore] int someID;
  public string someString;
}
