Json serialization

[Facundo Schwindt]

Hi everyone ...

This days I was surfing different method to serialize and deserialize Json.

I found Piriti ( http://code.google.com/p/piriti/ ) this run on the client side only.

but I try to reproduce an example of the wiki with no good results.  http://code.google.com/p/piriti/wiki/Json#Implementation

Any one knows where really I have to put the JSON data of this example in a GWT project? :

JSON data 

{

    "isbn": "978-0345417954", 
    "pages": 432,

    "title": "The Hotel New Hampshire",
    "author": {

        "firstname": "John",
        "surname": "Irving", 

    },
    "reviews": [
        "A hectic gaudy saga with the verve of a Marx Brothers movie.", 

        "Rejoice! John Irving has written another book according to your world.", 
        "Spellbinding, intensely human, a high-wire act of dazzling virtuosity."

    ]

}     

and how a do for that example works on my gwt project ?

Thanks

Ezequiel

You have different options for loading / parsing JSON data: 

1. Receive it as a string from the server as a result of a RCP / REST call. Therefore Pirit was originally intended.
2. Load it from an external file. I'm using this option in my unit tests. See http://code.google.com/intl/de-DE/webtoolkit/doc/latest/DevGuideClientBundle.html#TextResource for more details.

In any case the JsonReader interface needs the JSON data as string or as JSONObject. See http://piriti.googlecode.com/svn/site/apidocs/name/pehl/piriti/json/client/JsonReader.html. 

BTW Piriti has its own group: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/piriti. You can also ask questions there.
