Remarks

During deserialization of a DocumentNode, the persistence version of the serialized type can be retreived by calling GetPersistedVersion(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext, String). By inspecting this object, the deserialization code can determine what values to expect in the serialized format and thus what to deserialize.

Make sure to increment the persistence version of a class whenever the fields that it serializes change in any way. This includes addition and removal the serialized fields as well as changes of name and type.
