Hello,

I like the possibility to serialize integer arrays into XML attribute. It's
efficient and human readable.
Now I wish to serialize the same way a byte array. But the smart XML
seralizer serializes byte arrays using base64 encoding, which is efficient
but not human-readable. I cannot believe that there is no built-in
possibility to serialize byte arrays the same way like integer arrays. But
cannot acheive it.

Please help, thanks in advance.

=======================

I am using MS Visual Basic 2008, .NET Framework 3.5 SP1.

Integer arrays (declared in some class) perform the way I like:

    <XmlAttribute("intarr")> _
    Public aiArray() As Integer = New Integer() {0, 1, 10, 255}

    generates XML (fragment): intarr="0 1 10 255"

But byte arrays are serialized using base64:

    <XmlAttribute("bytearr")> _
    Public abArray() As Byte = New Byte() {0, 1, 10, 255}

    generates XML (fragment): bytearr="AAEK/w=="
    i would like to achieve: bytearr="0 1 10 255"
    How to manage it?
