Deserialization issue on Resume with System.Activities.Runtime.ExecutionPropertyManager

[fanzh0513]

We try to resume a WorkflowApplication instance from the FileInstanceStore of one of your examples and run into a Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializationException (see below).

The deserialization fails becaus there is no default constructor in the class System.Activities.Runtime.ExecutionPropertyManager.

However the [ExecutionPropertyManager] is flagged as [DataContract].

In my understanding it would be generally recommended to have a default constructor for each DataContract.

Adding a default constructor solves the issue for me.

Finally my question, whether there is a reason for not having a default constructor on System.Activities.Runtime.ExecutionPropertyManager.

The exception message and stacktrace I get on resuming a WorkflowApplication instance from an existing GUID.

Message:
