Dictionaries with DateTimeOffset as key fails to serialize

[Jimmy Rasmussen]

Given an object of this type:

        class A
        {
            public IDictionary<DateTimeOffset, string> Items { get; set; }
        }

Serialization and deserialzation seems to be working fine with Json.Net, but when trying to store the object with ravenDB I get this error:

System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException : Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.
  ----> System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException : Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.
  ----> Raven.Imports.Newtonsoft.Json.JsonWriterException : Token String in state ObjectStart would result in an invalid JSON object. Path 'Items'.

A solution could be to implement by own JsonConverter, but if this is a bug in the ravenDB adaptation of Json.Net it should get fixed.

Thanks, this will be fixed in the next build

Serialization/Deserialization using Json.Net (JsonConvert.SerializeObject() and JsonConvert.DeserializeObject() ) seems to be working fine, but when trying to store the object in ravenDB I get this error:

System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException : Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.

My guess is that there is a bug in the ravenDB adaptation of Json.Net?

A solution could be to implement my own JsonConverter, but if it's a bug in ravenDB it should get fixed.
