A method of serializing and deserializing unknown data types in a strongly typed model. The method includes serializing an object to a data stream at first node and communicating the data stream to a second node. The second node may be another process, machine or a file on a disk. The data stream is deserialized at a later time, and the data types within the data stream are determined. Objects are instantiated in accordance with known data types, and unknown objects are created to retain information related to each unknown data type in the data stream. These unknown objects are used to regenerate the unknown data type when a serialization operation is performed at the second node on an unknown object.
