Parse json into specified descendant class

[vmato]

Is it possible to parse json into specified descendant class?

std::string json = "{ \"name\" : \"Franky\" }"

class Person : Poco::JSON::Object {
// ...
}

Person p = ???(json);

I've seen handlers but didn't find any explicit way to override JSON::Object creation

You "override" JSON::Object creation by implementing your PersonHandler::asVar() to return a Dynamic::Var which can be converted to Person.

As things stand now, it is doable, but not in an optimal way because ParseHandler::setValue() is private and so the whole handler should be reimplemented. We'll make it protected for 1.13
