How to serialize/deserialize in UWP Spreadsheet?
SfSpreadsheet provides support to serialize and deserialize the workbook using XlsIO.
Serialization:
For serialization, you can use SaveAsXml() method of IWorkbook.
C#
// Serialize
MemoryStream serializedBinary = new MemoryStream();
async private void Serialize_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
await this.Spreadsheet.Workbook.SaveAsXmlAsync
(serializedBinary,ExcelXmlSaveType.MSExcel);
this.Spreadsheet.ActiveSheet.Range["C5"].Clear();
Spreadsheet.ActiveGrid.InvalidateCells();
var dialog = new MessageDialog("Serialized successfully");
await dialog.ShowAsync();
}
Deserialization:
For Deserialization, you can use OpenFromXml() method of IWorkbook .
C#
// Deserialize
MemoryStream serializedBinary = new MemoryStream();
async private void DeSerialize_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
serializedBinary.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
ExcelEngine engine = new ExcelEngine();
IWorkbook workbook= await engine.Excel.Workbooks.OpenFromXmlAsync
(serializedBinary, ExcelXmlOpenType.MSExcel);
Spreadsheet.Open(workbook);
Spreadsheet.ActiveGrid.InvalidateCells();
var dialog = new MessageDialog("Deserialized successfully");
await dialog.ShowAsync();
serializedBinary.Dispose();
}
