I have a datacontract like this
[DataContract]
class MyDC
{
[DataMember]
public string DM1;
[DataMember]
public string DM2;
[DataMember]
public string DM3;
}
and sometimes I want to prevent DM2 from being deserialized when being returned from an OperationContract. Something like this:
[OperationContact]
public MyDC GetMyDC()
{
MyDC mdc = new MyDC();
if (condition)
{
// Code to prevent DM2 from being deserialized
}
return mdc;
}
I could always make a new DataContract that has only DM1 and DM3 and generate that from the MyDC instance but I want to see if it is possible to programatically remove DM2. Is it possible? How?
