FileNotFoundException for mscorlib.XmlSerializers.DLL, which doesn't exist

Question

I\'m using an XmlSerializer to deserialize a particular type in mscorelib.dll

XmlSerializer ser = new XmlSerializer( typeof( [.Net type in System] ) );
retur         


        

Answer 1

The delay is because, having been unable to find the custom serializer dll, the system is building the equivalent code (which is very time-consuming) on the fly.

The way to avoid the delay is to have the system build the DLL, and make sure it's available to the .EXE - have you tried this?
