what should i be using for encoder in the ListSerializer?

ListSerializer(ListingStateVO.serializer()).serialize(
				encoder = ???,
				value = it
			)

It’ll vary depending on what format you’re serializing to (JSON, proto, etc). Though, usually you won’t call serialize() directly but instead a function like Json.stringify() which configures an Encoder internally.

Any function that you might have passed ListingStateV0.serializer() to for an object, you could also pass ListSerializer(ListingStateVO.serializer()) for a list.

Json.stringify is deprecated in 1.4 rc

[janvladimirmostert]

Json.encodeToString(ListingStateVO.serializer(), it)

expects a single item, not a list

[russhwolf]

Json.encodeToString(ListSerializer(ListingStateVO.serializer()), list)

thanks for the info!
