I'm using reflection to deserialize object from binary stream ("objType=SM.Backend.Entities.Erp.CodeListBase"):

var methodInfo = typeof(SM.Core.Serializator).GetMethod("DeserializeCache");
var genericMethod = methodInfo.MakeGenericMethod(objType);
var _objItem = genericMethod.Invoke(null, new[] { _streamedData });

It works. If I inspect _objItem in Locals window it looks like:_objItem

Now i would like to export _objItem content to json string:

var jsonString=JsonConvert.SerializeObject(_objItem, Formatting.Indented);

But result is empty: "[]". If I do the same for other objects it works. I guess for this object it doesn't work because it is complex type(nested):

SM.Backend.Entities.Erp.CodeListBase{SM.Backend.Entities.Erp.CodeList<SM.Backend.Entities.Erp.MaterialType>}.

Any idea how to extract the content from locals to json string? Should I convert object to different type first?

If I change _objItem to be iList of items of type:

SM.Backend.Entities.Erp.CodeList<SM.Backend.Entities.Erp.MaterialType>        
SM.Backend.Entities.Erp.CodeList<SM.Backend.Entities.Erp.ProductDescriptionType>

...

as you can see here: _objItem

the result is the same "[]". But collection is not empty.

  • SerializeObject((SM.Backend.Entities.Erp.CodeList<SM.Backend.Entities.Erp.MaterialType>)_objItem, Formatting.Indented); could be some problem with type identification. Commented Dec 21, 2016 at 10:57
  • By default, NewtonSoft.Json will only serialize public members stackoverflow.com/questions/29003215/… Commented Dec 21, 2016 at 11:01
  • Thanks. i think all members are public. And idea? Commented Dec 21, 2016 at 12:02
  • SM.Backend.Entities.Erp.CodeList<SM.Backend‌​.Entities.Erp.Materi‌​alType> _objItem = genericMethod.Invoke(null, new[] { _streamedData }); //try cast object to correct type or look at my first comment Commented Dec 21, 2016 at 12:15
  • But something work fine because "[]" it mean that it detect IEnumerable otherway you will get "{}" Commented Dec 21, 2016 at 12:28
