Deserializing ListMap with lift-json

[Joe Barnes]

Has anyone successfully written a ListMap deserializer for lift-json?  We tried writing our own Serializer, but lift-json keeps expecting our case class's constructor to have a Map.  I think it's because ListMap is a child type of Map, so lift-json is finding map before it finds our custom deserialization case.

That sounds slightly weird, but perhaps adding a type hint would help?

Thanks,

I'd like to avoid changing the serialization of the object with a type hint... but perhaps I can no-op the serialization and use only the name of the field on deserialization?  I'll have to look today when I get back to the code.

Maybe you can also attach a custom deserializer to the container and

use your own routine to build the object?

Thanks,

That's what we were thinking of doing, actually.
