RestSharp: Execute<T>() with T having IEnumerable property

Question

I noticed that using RestSharp :Execute<T>() , when T as below

public class Result
{
    public List<DBData> Data { get; set; }
    public int Total { get; set; }
    public bool Success { get; set; }           
}

It deserialized the JSON from Execute<Result>() correctly into Result object, However when the class has IEnumerable property like below

public class Result 
{
    public IEnumerable<DBData> Data { get; set; }
    public int Total { get; set; }
    public bool Success { get; set; }
}

Execute<Result>() does not fill(deserialize) into the object Result.

I am suspecting it is because of IEnumerable<T> being read only and Restsharp is unable to deserialize data because of that ? Is it the case ?

Answer 1

Because RestSharp can not infer the type of the property from the IEnumerable. Extend the existing SimpleJson serializer to use more robust serializer like Json.Net
