ScriptIgnoreAttribute Class
Specifies that JavaScriptSerializer will not serialize the public property or public field. This class cannot be inherited.
Assembly: System.Web.Extensions (in System.Web.Extensions.dll)
The ScriptIgnoreAttribute type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | ScriptIgnoreAttribute | Initializes a new instance of the ScriptIgnoreAttribute class. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Equals | Infrastructure. Returns a value that indicates whether this instance is equal to a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
![]() | Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetHashCode | Returns the hash code for this instance. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
![]() | GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | IsDefaultAttribute | When overridden in a derived class, indicates whether the value of this instance is the default value for the derived class. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
![]() | Match | When overridden in a derived class, returns a value that indicates whether this instance equals a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
![]() | MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() ![]() | _Attribute::GetIDsOfNames | Maps a set of names to a corresponding set of dispatch identifiers. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
![]() ![]() | _Attribute::GetTypeInfo | Retrieves the type information for an object, which can be used to get the type information for an interface. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
![]() ![]() | _Attribute::GetTypeInfoCount | Retrieves the number of type information interfaces that an object provides (either 0 or 1). (Inherited from Attribute.) |
![]() ![]() | _Attribute::Invoke | Provides access to properties and methods exposed by an object. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
If you apply ScriptIgnoreAttribute to a public property or public field of a class, then JavaScriptSerializer ignores, or skips, the member when serializing an instance of the class to JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) format.
The ScriptIgnoreAttribute will have no effect if the ResponseFormat property is set to Xml. If you want to have the same behavior when serializing to XML format, XmlIgnoreAttribute should be applied to the property or field instead. This is because the class will be serialized by using XmlSerializer instead of JavaScriptSerializer.
You can also apply both ScriptIgnoreAttribute and XmlIgnoreAttribute to a property or field. In this case, the property or field will be ignored for JSON and XML response formats.

The following example demonstrates how to apply ScriptIgnoreAttribute to the Comment field in the custom class named Group. This instructs JavaScriptSerializer to ignore the field when serializing an instance of the class to JSON format.
