Deserialize JSON / NSDictionary to Swift objects

Question

Is there a way to properly deserialize a JSON response to Swift objects resp. using DTOs as containers for fixed JSON APIs?

If you would like parse from and to json without the need to manually map keys and fields, then you could also use EVReflection. You can then use code like:

var user:User = User(json:jsonString)

or

var jsonString:String = user.toJsonString()

The only thing you need to do is to use EVObject as your data objects base class. See the GitHub page for more detailed sample code
