Hi,
Custom serialization is the process of controlling the serialization and deserialization of a type. By controlling serialization, it is possible to ensure serialization compatibility, which is the ability to serialize and deserialize between versions of a type without breaking the core functionality of the type. For example, in the first version of a type, there may be only two fields. In the next version of a type, several more fields are added. Yet the second version of an application must be able to serialize and deserialize both types
