Title
Body
I'm trying to serialize a Type object in the following way: Type myType = typeof (StringBuilder); var serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(Type)); TextWriter writer = new StringWriter(); serializer.Serialize(writer, myType); When I do this, the call to Serialize throws the following exception: "The type System.Text.StringBuilder was not expected. Use the XmlInclude or SoapInclude attribute to specify types that are not known statically." Is there a way for me to serialize the Type object? Note that I am not trying to serialize the StringBuilder itself, but the Type object containing the metadata about the StringBuilder class.
