Remarks
The DiscoverableType attribute is used in several situations to identify types to be discovered. When using the DiscoverableTypeMode.KnownType the attribute can be used in place of the IKnownType interface to mark a type as a "known type" for serialization purposes. (See the DataContractSerializer for information on known types.)
