I am trying to use XML serialization for streaming data on network. I
could understand that with versioning you can make any class backward
compatible.
I have a situation which demands the other way; I need to read and
construct an old object from new XML data. Currently it throws
stream_error exception for any newly added member. I am trying to figure
out how to deal with it; either write new archive or derive from
existing XML archive and do changes etc.
I am wondering whether anybody has done any work towards this idea and
would like to share their insight.
Thanks
Shanti
