I'm trying to store (readable) data in a text-file as an asset since the class I'm serializing contains many things that Unity itself can't handle.
A problem is though, that even though everything saves and loads, only the base-type is returned.
I did a lot of searches on the internet to find a solution and I've tried everything recommended but alas, the problem still resides.
I'm trying to serialize a class with 2 fields, one int and one Dictionary;
Item is the base class with a large variety of children
I've had to convert int to string to allow jsonfx to de-serialize the dictionary.
The following code is used to serialize and de-serialize the data.
public static string FiletoJSON(object T)
{
try
{
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
JsonWriterSettings settings = JsonDataWriter.CreateSettings(false);
settings.TypeHintName = "__type";
JsonWriter writer = new JsonWriter(sb, settings);
writer.Write(T);
return sb.ToString();
}
catch(Exception e)
{
Debug.LogWarning(e.InnerException);
return null;
}
}
public static T JSONtoFile(string JSONString)
{
try
{
JsonReaderSettings settings = JsonDataReader.CreateSettings(true);
settings.TypeHintName = "__type";
using (TextReader textReader = new StringReader(JSONString))
{
var jsonReader = new JsonReader(textReader, settings);
return jsonReader.Deserialize();
}
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Debug.LogWarning(e);
return default(T);
}
}
The following is the output of the string.
{
"__type": "ItemDatabase, Assembly-CSharp",
"DatabaseID": 1,
"ItemList":
{
"1":
{
"__type": "Sniper, Assembly-CSharp",
"MaxAmountOfItem": 1,
"RangedAttack": 950,
"WeaponObjectID": 3,
"weaponType": "Sniper",
"Accuracy": 100,
"MaxEnergy": 437,
"SkillSlots": null,
"StatusEffects": null,
"EnergyRestorePerTick": 8,
"EnergyRestoreOverTime": true,
"Variance": 30,
"Cooldown": 1,
"Name": "TestSniper",
"Description": "",
"ID": 1,
"Points": 1,
"Tier": 8
}
}
}
How can I make sure that JsonFX properly de-serializes my sub-types too?
Note: The purpose of this, is storing several dictionaries filled with supertypes. I've managed to accomplish this with a binaryformatter, but there is a noticeable performance reduction compared to using JSON. On top of this, the data in the text file is unreadable.
