Remarks

When you apply this attribute to a member, the items/values of the collection/dictionary will be serialized as 2 element array as [ <type-code>, <actual-value (array or map)>] format where the type-code is utf-8 encoded string representing type in your application (system) context. When you interop with other launages, the deserializer will be able to deserialize object which is actual type when serialized with interoperability.

Note
You must use one-to-one relationship between type-code and the type.
