This would be in the realm of “rolling my own”, which I can do if I have to. But I just wanted to know if there was any way to serialize the whole query object, then deserialize it to create a WixDataQuery object from it. There is more to a query than just the filter, so I’d love it if there was built in support for this.
I have written serializer/deserializer code for the filters, for another purpose. I save a serialized filter in memory storage so that when the user goes back to the search page, the filters are already selected. I could re-use this code, but again…I just secretly hoped that Wix could do this auto-magically.
