Hi all,

I am pretty new to Scala and Lift so this question may not be pitched
or explained correctly.

I have an abstract class called Book that is created via Object Book.
No troubles with this.

abstract class Book {
    val tags : Map[String,String]
    val id : String
}

I wish to serialize this to a Json response, but I am having troubles
resolving the serialization of the Map (tags) to a simple name value
pair.

eg. Map(Title -> RedHat Unleashed,  Category ->OS)

Json response.

  "book": {
    "id": "ID1234",
    "tags": {
        "Title": "RedHat Unleased",
        "Category": "OS"
     }
  }

 val json = ("books" ->
                    books.map { b =>
                        ("id" -> b.id) ~
                        ("tags" ->
                            b.tags.map { t =>
                               ==> this is where I need to create a
List(JsonAST.JField(key,value)...)) from the map
                            }
                        )
                    }
                   )

This is probably a general Scala question with maps, but I having
difficult finding good examples that transform a map into a list with
new object content.
