Question

I’m using ServiceStack.Text’s JSON serialization stuff for one of my projects. However, when deserializing data I would like the ability to override the part that creates the instance of the object. I would like it to use my IoC container to create the instance of any new objects needed during deserialization. Any ideas on how to do this?

Answer 1

In ServiceStack’s JSON Serializer there are hooks on:

JsConfig<T>.OnSerializingFn

and

JsConfig<T>.OnDeserializedFn

That should let you do this.
