Root Object
Many modern JSON like data markup languages allows root level object and arrays, i.e omitting top level braces. This can be done in DataConfig with custom serialize handlers.
// DataConfigExtra/Private/DataConfig/Extra/SerDe/DcSerDeRoot.cpp
// root object
FString Str = TEXT(R"(
"Name" : "Foo",
"Id" : 253,
"Type" : "Beta"
)");
// equivalent fixture
FDcExtraSimpleStruct Expect;
Expect.Name = TEXT("Foo");
Expect.Id = 253;
Expect.Type = EDcExtraTestEnum1::Beta;
// DataConfigExtra/Private/DataConfig/Extra/SerDe/DcSerDeRoot.cpp
// root list
FString Str = TEXT(R"(
"Alpha",
"Beta",
"Gamma"
)");
// equivalent fixture
TArray<EDcExtraTestEnum1> Expect = {
EDcExtraTestEnum1::Alpha,
EDcExtraTestEnum1::Beta,
EDcExtraTestEnum1::Gamma};
This can be a tiny QOL improvement for manually authoring JSON data.
