On Mono, XmlSerializer.Serialize(object, stream) uses the default encoding for the platform. .NET appears not to specify an encoding, as evidenced by the output from the code below.
Due to the way it currently works on Mono, Unicode characters don't get serialized and deserialized on Mono correctly when using the XmlSerializer.Serialize(object, stream) constructor: Here's the example code:
XmlSerializationText.cs
Description: XmlSerializationText.cs
Here's the output: Mono: (tested on r147679, but XmlSerializer.cs has no changes in HEAD)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><Foo xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"><Bar>Biz</Bar></Foo> .NET 3.5
<?xml version="1.0"?><Foo xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"><Bar>Biz</Bar></Foo> Here's a patch that makes Mono do what .NET does in this case. |
