Unable to import TimeSpan from string

[Bruno Tezine]

Hi, 

I'm trying to import an object that contains a TimeSpan field (as string). 

I already created a TimeSpanImporter class with the function ImportFromString...

The function is called correctly and the TimeSpan is created fine, but after that I get an exception {"Found String where Member was expected."}. 

Here is the object: 

    public class ETest {

        public TimeSpan tm { get; set; }

    }

The string sent: 

"{\"tm\":\"11:28:47\"}"

The overrided function:

protected override object ImportFromString(ImportContext context, JsonReader reader){

            try {

                TimeSpan tm;

                bool ok=TimeSpan.TryParse(reader.Text, out tm);

                if (!ok) tm=(TimeSpan) base.ImportFromString(context, reader);               

                return tm;

            } catch (Exception ex) {

                SLogger.Error(this, ex.ToString());                

            }

            return null;

        }

The function that calls the import:

static public testImport(string txt){

  try{

    JsonConvert.Import(parameter.ParameterType, txt);// txt="{\"tm\":\"11:28:47\"}"

  }catch(Exception ex){

     //THIS EXCEPTION IS FIRED WITH MESSAGE: {"Found String where Member was expected."}. 

 }

}

What am I missing? 

Thank you, 

    Bruno.
