Scala 2.10 + Json serialization and deserialization

Question

Scala 2.10 seems to have broken some of the old libraries (at least for the time being) like Jerkson and lift-json.

The target usability is as follows:

Answer 1

So, based on the absence of an error message and the incorrect sample code, I'm suspecting this is more of an issue of just not understanding how the lift-json extraction works. If I've misunderstood, do comment and let me know. So, if I'm right then here's what you need.

To serialize:

import net.liftweb.json._
  import Extraction._

implicit val formats = DefaultFormats

case class Person(...)
val person = Person(...)
val personJson = decompose(person) // Results in a JValue

Then to reverse the process you'd do something like:

// Person Json is a JValue here.
personJson.extract[Person]

If that's not the part you're having trouble with, then do let me know and I can try to revise my answer to be more helpful.
