Просто используйте перегрузку конструктора, которая принимает preserveObjectReferences
, и установите для нее значение true:
using System;
using System.Runtime.Serialization;
static class Program
{
public static T Clone<T>(T obj) where T : class
{
var serializer = new DataContractSerializer(typeof(T), null, int.MaxValue, false, true, null);
using (var ms = new System.IO.MemoryStream())
{
serializer.WriteObject(ms, obj);
ms.Position = 0;
return (T)serializer.ReadObject(ms);
}
}
static void Main()
{
Foo foo = new Foo();
Bar bar = new Bar();
foo.Bar = bar;
bar.Foo = foo; // nice cyclic graph
Foo clone = Clone(foo);
Console.WriteLine(foo != clone); //true - new object
Console.WriteLine(clone.Bar.Foo == clone); // true; copied graph
}
}
