Is it possible to deserialize delegates to non-public methods?
Deserializaton of the object graph inside a program I'm working on fails
with the following exception:
> A first chance exception of type
> 'System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationException' occurred
> in mscorlib.dll
>

Looking at the call stack and using Anarkino, it seems that this exception
is thrown by the following code inside
DelegateSerializationHolder.GetDelegate:
private Delegate GetDelegate(DelegateEntry de) {
Delegate local0;
MethodInfo local5;
...
local5 = local0.Method;
if (local5 != null && !(local5.IsPublic))
throw new SerializationException(Environment.GetResourceString
("Serialization_RefuseNonPublicDelegateCreation"));
return local0;
}
However, I have created a minimal test case where a simple object contains
an event handler with a delegate pointing to a private method of another
simple object. In that case serialization seems to work.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
