I want to modify my constructor so that it only accepts objects that have the [Serializable] attribute. Here is my current constructor code:
public MyClass(object obj)
{
}
I want to change it to something like this:
public MyClass(? obj)
{
}
How can I accomplish this in C#?
The first thing that comes to my mind is to simplify this by allowing only objects that implement ISerializable interface:
public MyClass(ISerializable obj)
{
// ...
}
But I think it's too simple, isn't it?
Alternatively:
public MyClass(Object obj)
{
if (!Attribute.IsDefined(obj.GetType(), typeof(SerializableAttribute)))
throw new ArgumentException("The object must have the Serializable attribute.","obj");
// ...
}
I think that you can even check for it by using:
obj.GetType().IsSerializable;
obj.GetType() is Reflection.
