How do I format some ASP.NET MVC Json result?
I have a really simple POCO (business) object that I return to the client as some json using ASP.NET MVC.
eg. (please ignore the lack of error checking, etc.).
public JsonAction Index()
{
Foo myFoo = MyService();
return Json(myFoo);
}
Kewl. This object now includes the following public properties ...
public class Foo
{
public decimal Score { get; set; }
public Dictionary<string, string> KeyValues { get; set; }
}
Now when the object is serialized to json, the decimal value has precision 7 (and I after precision 2) and KeyValues can be null. If it is zero the json looks like this ...
"KeyValues" : null
I was hoping that KeyValues would NOT be included in the json if invalid.
Are there any tricks to help format this json output? Or do I have to do it manually .. make my own string ... then return it like .. I don't know .. ContentAction? (EEKs).
Please, help!

ASP.Net MVC Json () method uses JavascriptSerializer for internal encoding. There are several options for controlling the serialization of your classes by creating and registering your own JavascriptConverter objects .
