?

Or use the decorator JsonProperty("Event") and JsonConvert will use that name from the Json to assign the class property (whatever it's called)

Or make the class internal and then S+ won't even see it.

?

All the best,

Check the references in the project, even t okay though you have the "using" if it's not present in of the references Visual Studio will have no idea what to do with it.

"do you know Bob?"

"Uhh, which Bob?"

Subject: [crestron] Signal Change Events on the 4-Series

?

I'm going through the learning cliff of programming for a 4-series
processor with VS2019.? I always try to program my drivers using VS2008
so the code can be run on a 3-Series processor or a 4-Series processor.?
In this case I need VS2019's support for WebSockets.

To pass data back to a group of Simpl+ modules I would do the following
with VS2008:

???? public class SerialChangeEventArgs : EventArgs
???? {
???????? public string entity_id { get; set; }

???????? public SerialChangeEventArgs()
???????? {
???????? }

???????? public SerialChangeEventArgs(string entity_id)
???????? {
???????????? this.entity_id = entity_id;
???????? }
???? }

???? public static class SignalChangeEvents
???? {
???????? public static event SerialChangedEventHandler onSerialValueChange;

???????? public static void SerialValueChange(string entity_id)
???????? {
???????????? SignalChangeEvents.onSerialValueChange(new
SerialChangeEventArgs(entity_id));
???????? }
???? }

However, under VS2019 I get the following error:

Error??? CS0246??? The type or namespace name
'SerialChangedEventHandler' could not be found (are you missing a using
directive or an assembly reference?)

I have the same "using" directives that I have used with VS2008.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

If you are deserializing to a typed object your class name does not have to match anything within the json.? Can you make it something other than "Event" and then make sure the property name matches with your json string.? Something like the following

? public class Root
???? {
???????? public int id { get; set; }
???????? public string type { get; set; }
???????? public EventItem event { get; set; }

???? }

???? public class EventItem
???? {
???????? public string event_type { get; set; }
???????? public DateTime time_fired { get; set; }
???????? public string origin { get; set; }
???? }

I'm trying to convert some JSON into a series of C# classes.? My problem
is that one of the classes is named Event and this is causing a conflict
with SimplWindows because that name is already used.? I know that
NewtonSoft allows you to use JsonProperty to perform a renaming of an
element of a class to avoid a similar conflict but I can't find anything
that will solve this problem for a class.

ERROR? (LGSPLS1000)?? 'Event' already defined

???? public class Root
???? {
???????? public int id { get; set; }
???????? public string type { get; set; }
???????? public Event @event { get; set; }

???? }

???? public class Event
???? {
???????? public string event_type { get; set; }
???????? public DateTime time_fired { get; set; }
???????? public string origin { get; set; }
???? }

Thanks in advance for the help
