It doesn't give any compilation error. At runtime, it
throws exception - 'There was an error reflecting
type 'System.Reflection.MethodInfo'

-------------

XmlSerializer mySerializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof
(MethodInfo));

mySerializer.Serialize(myWriter, method);

//method is a object of class MethodInfo

It's by design. You cannot serialize class memebers that have
declarative security attributes. This is done to prevent breaking of the
declarative security.
