extendedJSONToClass() Operation

set anObject = aString.extendedJSONToClass()
set anObject = extendedJSONToClass(literal)

The operation extendedJSONToClass() takes an Extended JSON string (aString) and tries to map it to anObject. If this is not possible, an error is raised.

By default, the following mapping rules apply:

• Extended JSON attributes are mapped to class attributes having the same name.

• Attributes not defined in the target class are ignored.

For more mapping details refer to JSON Type Mapping. These details also refer to Extended JSON.

An Extended JSON document as String.

anObject

Target object, can be any object.

literal
