public class JsonSerializer
extends Serializer

Compact JSON serializer. This uses the most compact type-safe JSON format allowable. There are two optional variants switching the struct field ID between numeric ID and field name.

Format is like this:

 {
     "id":value,
     "structId":{ ... },
     "listId":[value1,value2],
     "mapId":{"id1":value1,"id2":value2}
 }
 

But without formatting spaces. The formatted JSON can be read normally. Binary fields are base64 encoded.

This format supports 'compact' struct formatting. A compact struct is formatted as a list with fields in order from 1 to N. E.g.:

 ["tag",5,6.45]
 

is equivalent to:

 {"1":"tag","2":5,"3":6.45}
