Thanks Jon!
The wrapper around C++ for JSON deserialization seems to be working well so 
far, but since you say C# JSON deserialization has been implemented in the 
latest release I'll probably start using that in the near future.


Any advice regarding C++? Anyone has suggestions for JSON serialization and 
deserialization? Is the proper way going through binary and using the 
BinaryToJson/JsonToBinary functions? Or is there a more direct way?

Thanks,
Ron
