使用RestSharp反序列化时是否可以实例化Null值

Question

How to default-ly instantiate null values while deserializing with RestSharp.

For example you have this POCO

public class Address {
    public string Street { get; set; }
    public string City { get; set; }
    public int Number { get; set; }
    public string Postal { get; set; }
}

public class Root {
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public Address Address { get; set; }
}

And this JSON:

{ 
    "Root": {
        "Name" : "John",
        "Address" : null 
    }
}

Is it possible when I do RestClient.ExecuteAsGet<Root>( ... ) , that even though the Address is null, it still gets instantiated ( new Address() )?

This may have changed in newer versions of RestSharp, but objects should be null by default if they are not present or null.

You can accomplish this with value types by using Nullable . https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/b3h38hb0.aspx

public class Root {
    public Nullable<DateTime> date { get; set; }
}
