Serialize JavaScript object into JSON string

constructor, javascript, json

Solution

var myobject = new MyClass1("5678999", "text");
var dto = { MyClass1: myobject };
console.log(JSON.stringify(dto));

EDIT:

`JSON.stringify` will stringify all 'properties' of your class. If you want to persist only some of them, you can specify them individually like this:

var dto = { MyClass1: {
    property1: myobject.property1,
    property2: myobject.property2
}};

Problem

I have this JavaScript prototype: ``` Utils.MyClass1 = function(id, member) { this.id = id; this.member = member; } ``` and I create a new object: ``` var myobject = new MyClass1("5678999", "text"); ``` If I do: ``` console.log(JSON.stringify(myobject)); ``` the result is: ``` {"id":"5678999", "member":"text"} ``` but I need for the type of the objects to be included in the JSON string, like this: ``` "MyClass1": { "id":"5678999", "member":"text"} ``` Is there a fast way to do this using a framework or something? Or do I need to implement a `toJson()` method in the class and do it manually?
