📣 Serialization v

0.10.0-eap-1

(dev branch) has just been released! This is a companion release to Kotlin

1.3.20-eap-52

Highlights: • Now Native plugin supports generics, @SerialInfo annotations and other features that were missing before • Now

SerialDescriptor.getElementDescriptor

is working and one can use it to deeply inspect descriptors tree • JSON now can omit default values • (breaking change) Context serializer is not enabled automatically anymore, use

@ContextualSerialization

on property. Full changelog: https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization/blob/dev/CHANGELOG.md

regarding the "omit default values": when I have a simple class like this: @Serializable data class Test(val name: String? = null) then Json(encodeDefaults = false).stringify(Test.serializer(), testInstance) should print out "{}"? This doesn't seem to work for me
