Description

Missing any explanation on how to respect the ReferenceResolver in use when ReferenceHandler.Preserve has been used, and your converter is called on a child in the object graph being serialized or deserialized. The converter examples you provide only work when no references are being maintained. Please provide some guidance. Can you even get a reference to the ReferenceResolver in use? Calling ReferenceHandler.CreateResolver throws an exception (It's already been created earlier in the graph being serialized). Is this a documentation problem or a feature issue?
