To/From Json Methods

[RyanCooney]

Are there any plans to expose ToJson and FromJson methods on objects like geometries and featuresets? This would be very useful! The methods are already there in some form, but they are all internal. Is there a reason they are not exposed the way there are in the Flex and JavaScript APIs?

The geometry classes have DataContracts defined on them so you can simply use the DataContractJsonSerializer

[RyanCooney]

Right. That's where I started, but it leads me to another problem. The Json generated by a DataContract will be different from the Json a Flex or JavaScript application would understand. I'm looking for a way to generate and consume the common Json format that ArcGIS Server understands.

Were you able to generate your json as desired?
