SBJson was a third party library that has no longer been necessary the last few years now that Apple has shipped NSJSONSerialization. Objects that support AGSJSONSerializable have a toJSON method you can call. That will give you a JSON object (most likely an NSDictionary, but could be an NSArray). You can use that JSON object with NSJSONSerialization to get NSData: AGSObject -> NSDictionary -> NSJSONSerialization -> NSData You can also go the other way if you have NSData: NSData -> NSJSONSerialization -> NSDictionary -> AGSObject Here is sample code showing you how to do both: -(void)testJSONSerialization{ // Example 1: AGSPoint to NSData of JSON string... // AGSPoint *point = [AGSPoint pointWithX:34 y:-117 spatialReference:[AGSSpatialReference WGS84]]; id jsonObject = [point toJSON:nil]; NSData *data = [NSJSONSerialization dataWithJSONObject:jsonObject options:0 error:nil]; // do whatever you want with the NSData... // ... // ... // For example print out a json string: NSLog(@"the json string: %@", [[NSString alloc]initWithData:data encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]); // Example 2: NSData of JSON String to AGSPoint // id jsonObject2 = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:data options:0 error:nil]; AGSPoint *point2 = (AGSPoint*)[AGSPoint fromJSON:jsonObject2 error:nil]; // print out and test for equality NSLog(@"point1: %@", point); NSLog(@"point2: %@", point2); NSAssert([point isEqualToGeometry:point2], @"point comparison failed..."); }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍
