AddSerializableProperties (character)
Purpose: Add a list of Serializable Properties to the SerializableProperties property
Notes: Required as a workaround to full reflection only. We *may* remove this
method once Progress Software has implemented full reflection

- CHARACTER EXTENT
- DATE
- DATE EXTENT

Parameters:
poClass Progress.Lang.Class
The declaring class

Deserialize (longchar)
Purpose: Initializes the object instance based on the passed in LONGCHAR
representation of the object instance
Notes:

Parameters:
pcSerializedRepresentation LONGCHAR
The stored LONGCHAR representation of the objects data
Top

DeserializeFromNode (handle)
Purpose: Deserializes the object instance based on the passed in X-NODEREF
instance
Notes:

Parameters:
phRootNode HANDLE
The root node with the properties for this object
Top

DeserializeProperty (handle, character, character)
Purpose: Deserializes a single property value to the current Object
Notes: Allows to override the handling of individual properties during the
XmlSerialization
Notes:

Parameters:
phPropertyNode HANDLE
reference to the source XML Node
pcProperty CHARACTER
The name of the property
pcType CHARACTER
The type of the property
Top

CHARACTER PropertyType (character)
Purpose: Returns the type of a property
Notes: Throws an error, when the property is unknown

Parameters:
pcProperty CHARACTER
The name of the property
Returns CHARACTER
The type of the property
Top

LONGCHAR Serialize ()
Purpose: Returns an LONGCHAR representation of the object instance
Notes:

Returns LONGCHAR
The LONGCHAR representation of the ISerializable objects data
Top

Serialize (handle)
Purpose: Serializes the properties of the current object instance to
an existing X-NODEREF object
Notes:

Parameters:
phParent HANDLE
The reference to the parent XML Node or Document
Top

Serialize (handle, character)
Purpose: Serializes the properties of the current object instance to
an existing X-NODEREF object
Notes:

Parameters:
phParent HANDLE
The reference to the parent XML Node or Document
pcNodeName CHARACTER
The name of the XML Node
Top

SerializeProperties (handle)
Purpose: Serializes the properties of this object instance as child nodes of
the given node
Notes:

Parameters:
phObjectNode HANDLE
The reference to the X-NODEREF object that represents the node for the current instance
Top

SerializeProperty (handle, character, character)
Purpose: Serializes a single property value to the current parent XmlNode
Notes: Allows to override the handling of individual properties during the
XmlSerialization

Parameters:
phParentNode HANDLE
The reference to the parent XML Node
pcProperty CHARACTER
The name of the property in the JsonObject
pcType CHARACTER
The type of the property
Top

LONGCHAR WriteXml ()
Purpose: Returns an LONGCHAR representation of the object instance
Notes: This method is a facade to the XmlSerializable:Serialize method

Returns LONGCHAR
The LONGCHAR representation of the ISerializable objects data
