# serialization

I need to deserialize a ListString into a MapString, SomeDataClass; afaik I need a delegating serializer, but what would I use for ListString; JsonArraySerializer?; in addition I don't quite get what the serialName parameter is being used for in SerialDescriptor(...); is that just a globally unique id of that serializer?

[Bernhard]

ListSerializer(String.serializer()) I guess?

ListSerializer(String.serializer()) I guess?

yes

[CLOVIS]

is that just a globally unique id of that serializer?

yes

thank you ivan

serializer<List<String>>()

should also work, but I worry about errors not being caught at compile time so I also use ListSerializer(String.serializer())

I see, thank you
