2004-07-02  Lluis Sanchez Gual  <[email protected]>

	* BinaryCommon.cs: Added CheckSerializable method.

	* ObjectWriter.cs: reduce contention in GetObjectData.

2004-05-14  Vladimir Vukicevic  <[email protected]>

	  spaces to _'s (checked with lluis)

2004-05-13  Lluis Sanchez Gual  <[email protected]>

	* ObjectWriter.cs: Fixed and Simplified WriteGenericArray and 
	  WriteSingleDimensionArrayElements. This also fixes bug #58345.

2004-05-03  Lluis Sanchez Gual  <[email protected]>

	* MessageFormatter.cs: In the all-are-primitive case, serialize Args, 
	  not OutArgs.

2004-04-28  Lluis Sanchez Gual <[email protected]>

	* MessageFormatter.cs: Serialize Args, not OutArgs, like in MS.NET.

2004-04-26  Lluis Sanchez Gual <[email protected]>

	* ObjectReader.cs, ObjectWriter.cs: FIXME cleaning.

2004-04-20  Lluis Sanchez Gual <[email protected]>

	* CodeGenerator.cs, ObjectReader.cs, ObjectWriter.cs: Serialize decimals
	  as strings, like in MS.NET. This fixes bug #57186.

2004-02-23  Lluis Sanchez Gual <[email protected]>

	* BinaryCommon.cs: Added UseReflectionSerialization property.
	* CodeGenerator.cs, ObjectWriter.cs: When serializing the name of an 
	  inherited field, prefix the name with the class name. This fixes #54439.
	  Moved check for reflection serialization variable to BinaryCommon.
	
2004-02-17  Lluis Sanchez Gual <[email protected]>

	* ObjectWriter.cs: Factorized some serialization code in new classes, so it
	  is now possible to use fast IL generated classes that use direct access
	  to class fields instead of using reflection.
	* CodeGenerator.cs: New file. Has several methods used by ObjectWriter to 
	  generate serialization code.

2004-02-05  Lluis Sanchez Gual <[email protected]>

	* ObjectWriter.cs: Get the assembly of a member from the member's type, not
	  from the type of the value, because that is the type written in the
	  metadata section of the object.

2003-12-23  Lluis Sanchez Gual <[email protected]>

	* ObjectReader.cs: Field names can include the type name if the field
	  belongs to a base type. Take this into account.

2003-11-26  Lluis Sanchez Gual <[email protected]>

	* BinaryFormatter.cs: Added missing methods.

2003-11-20  Lluis Sanchez Gual <[email protected]>

	* BinaryFormatter.cs, MessageFormatter.cs, ObjectReader.cs: Added support
	  for TypeFilter property.

2003-11-16  Lluis Sanchez Gual <[email protected]>

	* BinaryFormatter.cs, MessageFormatter.cs, ObjectWriter.cs: 
	  Implemented support for AssemblyFormat property.

2003-11-12  Lluis Sanchez Gual <[email protected]>

	* ObjectReader.cs, ObjectWriter.cs: Changed some GetType calls to "is" checks.

2003-07-28  Duncan Mak  <[email protected]>

	* BinaryFormatter.cs (WriteBinaryHeader): changed from public to
	private.

2003-07-25  Lluis Sanchez Gual <[email protected]>

    * MessageFormatter.cs: WriteMethodCall(): It must write all parameters,
      including ref and out.

2003-07-24  Lluis Sanchez Gual <[email protected]>

    * ObjectReader.cs, ObjectWriter.cs, BinaryCommon.cs: Fixed bug #45970.

2003-07-17  Lluis Sanchez Gual <[email protected]>

    * ObjectReader.cs: Keep MemberInfo members in type's metadata object, so it is
      not necessary to query them for every object.
    * ObjectWriter.cs: If the value being serialized is a value type (not boxed)
      then there is no need to register it in the ObjectIDGenerator, because it is
      not possible to have two references to the same value type object.

2003-05-13  Lluis Sanchez Gual <[email protected]>

    * ObjectReader.cs: Changed signature of ReadObjectGraph, so now it returns the
      deserialized object and the headers.
    * MessageFormatter.cs: The result of the call to the HeaderHandler delegate is
      now interpreted as the uri of the target object. This seems to be MS.NET
      behavior.
	* BinaryFormatter.cs: Deserialize now calls the HeaderHandler delegate,
	  if provided.

2003-02-25  Lluis Sanchez Gual <[email protected]>

	* BinaryFormatter.cs: Implemented support for binders.
    * MessageFormatter.cs: Implemented support for binders.

2003-02-11  Patrik Torstensson

2003-02-04  Lluis Sanchez Gual <[email protected]>

	reading the whole graph.
