Azure Cache - BinaryFormatter Issue

Hi,

I am trying to put & retrieve an object from the Azure Cache while using as a default serializer the BinaryFormatter and the following error occurs. Any ideas? The default serializer - which is NetDataContractSerializer - works but it's not efficient.

Hi John,

Are you using a recent version of LightSpeed? I can see where this would occur but the call path indicates that the object in question should have been initialised by the time that code is called so Im curious if its perhaps a case of an older build. If not is it possible to send through a small repro project which triggers this which we can use to get a fix together for you on this?

Thanks!
Jeremy
