ASP.NET Core 5 Known Issue

.NET 5 had a breaking change, which disables BinaryFormatter serialization by default. This has caused issues with the ReadableExpressions visualizers (and elsewhere) when debugging ASP.NET Core apps as the VS debugger uses BinaryFormatter to serialize objects before sending them to the visualizer.

The solution is to enable the BinaryFormatter in Debug only by adding the following to your ASP.NET Core csproj:

<PropertyGroup>
  <TargetFramework>net5.0</TargetFramework>
  <EnableUnsafeBinaryFormatterSerialization Condition=" '$(Configuration)' == 'Debug' ">
    true
  </EnableUnsafeBinaryFormatterSerialization>
</PropertyGroup>

Extension Methods

The extension methods are available on NuGet, and target .NET 3.5+ and .NETStandard 1.0+:
