Class LdJsonSerialization

Helper methods for JSON serialization of SDK classes.

Inheritance

System.Object

LdJsonSerialization

Namespace: LaunchDarkly.Sdk.Json

Assembly: LaunchDarkly.CommonSdk.dll

Syntax

public static class LdJsonSerialization : Object

Remarks

These methods can be used with any SDK type that has the IJsonSerializable marker interface.

Methods

DeserializeObject<T>(String)

Parses an object from its JSON representation.

Declaration

public static T DeserializeObject<T>(string json)
    where T : IJsonSerializable

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.String	json	the object's JSON encoding as a string

Returns

Type	Description
T	the deserialized instance

Type Parameters

Name	Description
T	type of the object being deserialized

Remarks

This is exactly equivalent to the System.Text.Json method JsonSerializer.Deserialize, except that it only accepts LaunchDarkly types that have the IJsonSerializable marker interface. It is retained for backward compatibility.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
System.Text.Json.JsonException	if the JSON encoding was invalid

SerializeObject<T>(T)

Converts an object to its JSON representation.

Declaration

public static string SerializeObject<T>(T instance)
    where T : IJsonSerializable

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
T	instance	the instance to serialize

Returns

Type	Description
System.String	the object's JSON encoding as a string

Type Parameters

Name	Description
T	type of the object being serialized

Remarks

This is exactly equivalent to the System.Text.Json method JsonSerializer.Serialize, except that it only accepts LaunchDarkly types that have the IJsonSerializable marker interface. It is retained for backward compatibility.

SerializeObjectToUtf8Bytes<T>(T)

Converts an object to its JSON representation as a UTF-8 byte array.

Declaration

public static byte[] SerializeObjectToUtf8Bytes<T>(T instance)
    where T : IJsonSerializable

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
T	instance	the instance to serialize

Returns

Type	Description
System.Byte[]	the object's JSON encoding as a byte array

Type Parameters

Name	Description
T	type of the object being serialized

Remarks

This is exactly equivalent to the System.Text.Json method JsonSerializer.SerializeToUtf8Bytes, except that it only accepts LaunchDarkly types that have the IJsonSerializable marker interface. It is retained for backward compatibility.
