The process of translating data structures or object state into a binary format

Serialization can be defined as the process of storing the state of an object to a storage medium. During this process, the public and private fields of the object and the name of the class, including the assembly containing the class, are converted to a stream of bytes, which is then written to a data stream. When the object is subsequently deserialized, an exact clone of the original object is created.

Custom equality comparer for `BinaryFormatter`

TL;DR; My custom [Serializable] class overrides GetHashCode and Equals, so multiple distinct objects can be "equal", and it looks like BinaryFormatter calls OnSerialized only once, but calls OnDeserialized twice when two equal but distinct…

Is there a chance of saving the hashcode of an object during its binary serialization (binary)?

I want to be able to compare objects by the hashcode. Per example, one is the object itself, and the other is serialized (binary) and then recovered version of the object. How can I save the hash in the serialized (binary) object?
