Question by Wisearn · Nov 15, 2016 at 03:05 PM · json 5.3 deserialize serializer

JsonUtility issue? Trying to deserialize to common field class.

Following: "Using FromJson() when the type is not known ahead of time

Deserialize the JSON into a class or struct that contains ‘common’ fields, and then use the values of those fields to work out what actual type you want. Then deserialize a second time into that type."

I have this:

 public enum PackageTypes {
   NONE,
   set_endpoints,
   ready_check,
   ready_check_response
 }
 
 [Serializable]
 public class PackageType {
   public PackageTypes type;
 
   public PackageType(PackageTypes _type) {
     this.type = _type;
   }
 
   public PackageType() { }
 }
 
 {"type":"set_endpoints","data":{"services":{"matching":{"ip":"127.0.0.1","port":8080},"gamestream":{"ip":"127.0.0.1","port":3000},"events":{"ip":"127.0.0.1","port":5000}}}}
 
 PackageType _pT = JsonUtility.FromJson<PackageType>(_jsonString);
 
 Debug.Log(_pT.type);

outputs: NONE

should be: set_endpoints
