Dictionary Serialization DeSerialization Issue

Question

I am using OpenRasta framework for REST API implementation. I have field in class which is of the type Dictionary<string, string> .I am testing this using REST Console(Google Chrome Plugin). After GET request to resource it gives me response in following format.

<CustomCheckBoxes>
        <d2p1:KeyValueOfstringstring>
            <d2p1:Key>Check1</d2p1:Key>
            <d2p1:Value>1</d2p1:Value>
        </d2p1:KeyValueOfstringstring>
</CustomCheckBoxes>

But when i use same XML for POST request on same resource while deserializing in XmlDataContractCodec it gives exception There was an error deserializing the object of type Resource . The prefix 'd2p1' is not defined

I have a specific requirement for the field i mentioned so i am using dictionary for it.Are there any alternative ways to serialize/deserialize Dictionary ??

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

If only that namespace is unknown to the serializer, you could try to remove it before passing it to the deserializer.

Like s/d2p1://g.
