Refactor test methods to use [DataRow] for parameterized testing of UseSgen and UseMeta combinations. Dynamically set AcBinarySerializerOptions in tests and add diagnostic output. Swap default values in AcBinarySerializerOptions: UseMetadata is now true, UseGeneratedCode is now false. This affects default serializer behavior across tests and usages.
- Refactor all serializer options to use properties returning new instances (no shared mutable state); update all usages accordingly
- Extract AcSerializerOptions, BinaryTypeCode, and BinaryPropertyFilterContext to dedicated files for clarity and reuse
- Add DEBUG-only string interning analysis/reporting tools to AcBinarySerializer
- Improve AcBinarySerializer string property serialization with direct typed getter and SIMD-optimized ASCII path
- Increase benchmark/test warmup iterations and add JIT warmup delays for more reliable performance measurements
- Remove redundant usings and update documentation/comments throughout
- No breaking API changes, but static readonly options fields are now properties
- Make ReferenceHandlingMode type-aware; OnlyId fully supported for binary, All is default for JSON
- ReferenceHandling is now settable; add ThrowOnCircularReference option
- Always sort Id property first for IId types to optimize tracking
- Serialize/deserialize IId.Id without type marker when reference handling is enabled
- Contexts now delegate options-derived properties to Options
- Improve skip logic and property filter performance in binary serializer
- Update tests to explicitly set ReferenceHandlingMode.All
- Refactor internal APIs for clarity, safety, and efficiency
- Introduced a high-performance, reusable "chain" API for JSON deserialization and object population, enabling parsed JSON to be reused for multiple deserializations without reparsing. Exposed via new extension methods and interfaces (`IDeserializeChain<T>`, `IPopulateChain`).
- Added comprehensive infrastructure for serializing and deserializing .NET Expression trees to a universal DTO (`AcExpressionNode`), with full round-trip support and robust handling of constants, closures, and queryable expressions.
- Centralized all property accessor and expression utilities in `AcSerializerCommon` to avoid duplication and improve maintainability.
- Enhanced both JSON and binary serializers to support Expression and IQueryable types, with automatic conversion to/from `AcExpressionNode`.
- Refactored type metadata and property accessor logic for performance and code reuse.
- Added extensive unit tests for the new chain API and expression serialization, and reorganized test models and namespaces for clarity.
- Improved logging, error handling, and test infrastructure.
- Misc: Added settings for local builds, updated project files, and cleaned up obsolete code.
Major overhaul of binary serializer/deserializer tests: split and expand test coverage for primitives, objects, navigation, generics, circular refs, and edge cases. Fix critical bugs in property skipping, string interning, type mismatch diagnostics, nullable assignment, and VarInt decoding. Add WASM-optimized deserialization options with string caching. Switch SignalR compression from Brotli to Gzip and introduce GzipHelper. Add comprehensive StockTaking test models and real-world bug reproductions. Improve diagnostics, test discovery, and add benchmark/utility scripts.
