JavaScriptSerializer with custom Type
- by balint
Hi, I have a function with a List return type. I'm using this in a JSON-enabled WebService like:
[WebMethod(EnableSession = true)]
[ScriptMethod(ResponseFormat = ResponseFormat.Json)]
public List<Product> GetProducts(string dummy) /* without a parameter, it will not go through */
{
return new x.GetProducts();
}
this returns:
{"d":[{"__type":"Product","Id":"2316","Name":"Big Something ","Price":"3000","Quantity":"5"}]}
I need to use this code in a simple aspx file too, so I created a JavaScriptSerializer:
JavaScriptSerializer js = new JavaScriptSerializer();
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
List<Product> products = base.GetProducts();
js.RegisterConverters(new JavaScriptConverter[] { new ProductConverter() });
js.Serialize(products, sb);
string _jsonShopbasket = sb.ToString();
but it returns without a type:
[{"Id":"2316","Name":"Big One ","Price":"3000","Quantity":"5"}]
Does anyone have any clue how to get the second Serialization work like the first?
Thanks!
