West Wind Web Toolkit includes default serialization services using the WestWindJsonSerializer class. However, if you prefer you can also use the popular Json.Net serializer.
To do this:
- Add the Json.Net assembly to your project
- Hookup Json.Net as your default JSON serializer
Add Json.Net to your Project
The easiest way to add Json.Net is to add it via NuGet by using NuGet Package Manager and installing with:PM> Install-Package Newtonsoft.Json
Set Json.Net as your default JSON Serializer
To set up JSON .NET as your default serializer, simply set a global flag in your application's startup code so it only fires once. The following code works in Application_Start of an ASP.NET application:
protected void Application_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
JSONSerializer.DefaultJsonParserType = SupportedJsonParserTypes.JsonNet;
}
Once set, all JSON serialization automatically will use the Json.Net serializer.
