I want to detect situation in which server returned a 200 OK response, but there was a problem on client side with reading the response

I hoped to use `kotlinx.serialization.json.internal.JsonDecodingException` but it is an internal API so I have to use reflection

is there any better way to do this?

Would it work if you catch the super class `SerializationException` ?

that's probably actually better :thinking_face: thanks for pointing it out

<https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/kotlinx-serialization-core/kotlinx.serialization/-serialization-exception/>

&gt; For general "catch-all" patterns around deserialization of potentially untrusted/invalid/corrupted data it is recommended to catch `IllegalArgumentException` type
they even say I might want to go one step further
