Hi,

I have been attempting to serialize a form to Xml using .NET 2.0. I have
successfully created my custom forms designer and I have implemented a
DesignerLoader (derived from BasicDesignerLoader). However, when it came to
serializing a form that contained a TableLayouyPanel I found that I had
moved in to a whole new set of problems, i.e. when deserializing the xml
(instantiate the class from the xml) I found I needed the row and column
position of the tables child controls. Something which I could seem to find
easily from my serialized xml.

Because of all this I though I would use the CodeDom instead. After all, I
only need to persist the description of a form and be able to instantiate it
a run time. I decided to use the CodeDom as all the windows forms controls
seem to have a DesignerSerializer that should provide me with the correct
information.

So, finally, the question I have is quite simple: Am I best deriving from
the CodeDomDesignerLoader and does anyone know how to use / derive from this
class, i.e. how to implement the abstract methods?

Kind regards

Graham
