How to use binaryformatter with custom class in unity?
I had a serializable class which had a TileBase and a Matrix4x4 variable in it. I wanted to save it as a custom binary file using bf.serialize() it but it always said "SerializationException: Type 'UnityEngine.Tilemaps.TileBase' in Assembly 'UnityEngine.TilemapModule, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' is not marked as serializable." Here is my code:
This is my serializable class:
[Serializable]
public class SerializableTile
{
public TileBase tile;
public Matrix4x4 rotation;
public SerializableTile(TileBase _tile, Matrix4x4 _rotation)
{
tile = _tile;
rotation = _rotation;
}
}
This is my save method:
public static void SaveRoom(SerializableTile _tiles, string _roomName)
{
BinaryFormatter formatter = new BinaryFormatter();
string _path = Path.Combine(path, _roomName);
using (FileStream stream = new FileStream(_path, FileMode.Create))
{
formatter.Serialize(stream, _tiles);
}
}
@Long2904 in a Script Serialization documentation there's a note about Custom Serialization. The link below has an example on how to implement an interface ISerializationCallbackReceiver which would allow you to handle data before/after serialization. This way you could wrap the data of your TileBase in a type that can be serialized and in OnAfterDeserialize() create a new instance of it using that data.
