Unregister Non-Generic Classes [Deprecated]

You can remove the serialized objects from a class. This unregisters the class from compact serialization, helping reduce configuration overhead. Classes can be removed using the NCache Management Center or PowerShell. Following are the steps to remove serialized objects from a cache.

Using the NCache Management Center

  • Launch the NCache Management Center by browsing to http://localhost:8251 or <server-ip>:8251.

  • Against the cache name, click on "..." and select Stop.

  • Once the cache is stopped, click View Details.

  • This opens up the detailed configuration page for the cache. Go to the Advanced Settings tab and click on Compact Serialization in the left bar.

  • Select the class to be removed and click on the Remove button.

  • Click on Save Changes to apply this configuration to the cache.

Using PowerShell

The Remove-CompactType cmdlet enables users to remove the objects that are already defined as serializable. The following command removes the compact serializable class Customers from the cache configuration of a cache named demoCache.

Remove-CompactType -CacheName demoCache -Class Alachisoft.NCache.Sample.Data.Customer
