must be marked as Serializable or have a TypeConverter other than ReferenceConverter to be put in vi

[jeffpriz]

I'm having trouble.. I created a small class that I pass to my Pages,
and I want to put that class into Viewstate..

I do:

Viewstate.add("thisVar", myClassVariable)

and i receive the lovely message that:
"my class" must be marked as Serializable or have a TypeConverter other
than ReferenceConverter to be put in viewstate.

Great... except that the class *IS* marked as serializable! .. I've
simplified the class all the way down to just a pair of strings to
remove the possibility that the members of the class weren't
serializable, and i STILL get that message..

What am i doing wrong??

thanks

Does your class inherit from anything? If so, serialization might try to
encode all fields in the parent class.

Exactly the trouble! Thanks

That's exactly it.. down the line the of inheritance a base class did
not get marked as serializable! Doh! (and I thought I had checked that
already.. but sure enough there it was!)

Thanks!
