I have a readonly struct. The struct, as it is readonly,must have readonly fields. However, I cannot apparently deserialize onto these fields from json. I would much like to keep my struct readonly though. How can I deserialize json to a readonly struct?
I am using the built-in json (System.Text.Json)
>Solution :
You could try to use JsonConstructor, as pointed out by @JonSkeet. However, if you want to have a struct without custom constructor, this is adressed in .Net 8, which releases this month, so if this is an option for you, I would recommend .Net 8.
