I hope it can create Dynamic Object when unpack the serialized object(once  
the client doesn't know the exact type of the original object or no  
declaration is available when the compilation is done).

For example:

a plugin DLL

class Plugin{
   int plugin_state;

} // serialize this object and then send to host


Host // has no idea of the plugin's declaration

DynamicObject do = unpack(dll_serialized_buffer);

do.plugin_state  // it can be done through the opDispatch
