The object that represents the view state of the Web server control to serialize to string form.
Use the Serialize method to transform an object state graph to string form. Reconstitute a state object from the string using the Deserialize method.
The following code example demonstrates how the Serialize method persists view state information to a file. The Save method of the StreamPageStatePersister class uses the IStateFormatter interface inherited from the PageStatePersister class to serialize view state. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the IStateFormatter interface.
