How to create a resolver for StreamJsonRpc and AOT systems

[kurtcz]

I would like to ask how I may add support for StreamJsonRpc classes (JsonRequest, JsonResult, ...) for AOT systems such as iOS. The classes are decorated with [DataContract] attribute and on iOS require an AOT generated resolver/formatter.

AFAIK the mpc tool does not support these as of now and the existing typelss / contractless / standard resolvers do not work on iOS (Operation is not supported on this platform). I hope there will be a way other than checking out the repository and editing the classes manually :-)

Thank you for any pointers/suggestions!

mpc supporting [DataContract] attributes is pegged for future work: #554 (comment)

You can serialize any type without modifying it by writing your own formatter for it, as documented in the README: https://github.com/neuecc/MessagePack-CSharp#resolvers

StreamJsonRpc 2.3 includes a built-in MessagePackFormatter now.
