Hi,
today I had to serialize and to unserialize JSON data.
The code Microsoft showed in his samples is here:
docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/framewor...eserialize-json-data
Using a static class with static methods simplified things very much:
using System.Runtime.Serialization
using System.Runtime.Serialization.Json
using System.IO
static class JsonHelper
static method Serialize<T>( oObject as T ) as string
local oSerializer as DataContractJsonSerializer
local oStream as MemoryStream
local oReader as StreamReader
local cResult as string
oSerializer := DataContractJsonSerializer{ typeof( T ) }
oStream := MemoryStream{}
oSerializer:WriteObject( oStream, oObject )
oStream:Position := 0
oReader := StreamReader{ oStream }
cResult := oReader:ReadToEnd()
oReader:Close()
oReader:Dispose()
oStream:Close()
oStream:Dispose()
return cResult
static method Deserialize<T>( cJsonString as string ) as T
local oResult as T
local oStream as MemoryStream
local oWriter as StreamWriter
local oSerializer as DataContractJsonSerializer
oStream := MemoryStream{}
oWriter := StreamWriter{ oStream }
oWriter:Write( cJsonString )
oWriter:Flush()
oStream:Position := 0
oSerializer := DataContractJsonSerializer{ typeof( T ) }
oResult := ( T ) oSerializer:ReadObject( oStream )
oWriter:Close()
oWriter:Dispose()
oStream:Close()
oStream:Dispose()
return oResult
end class
Using this code is really simple:
oLoginData := LoginData{ "user", "pass" }
cJsonString := JsonHelper.Serialize<LoginData>( oLoginData )
System.Console.WriteLine( cJsonString )
oLoginData := JsonHelper.Deserialize<LoginData>( cJsonString )
System.Console.WriteLine( String.Format( "Login:{0}, Password:{1}", oLoginData:username, oLoginData:password ) )
This code may not be the cleanest or best or error free solution, but it works for me.

P.S. to make this work, you need the System.Runtime.Serialization and System.XML assemblies in the references.
And here is a small XIDE export file with sample code:
