DateTime lost after executeOnServer

[rnikitin]

I tried to work with Model, containing Data.

The format I received from server with first request: /Date(1354656075282)/"}
While executing it sends with correct format.
But when it returned back from server side: /Date(-62135596800000)/

I cheched with debugger - on server side the field already lost.
So, it could be a problem somewhere in KnockoutUtilities.ConvertData.

Could somebody reproduce this issue?

BTW, please send to NuGet fresh version of the library :)

Hi, rnikitin.

Now best way to use Date with JSON is use string in model and parse it on server. But I'll try to study your problem more closely.
The new NuGet-package will be soon.

That looks a way I fixes this, but I used an int to store milliseconds.

BTW, found, that Serialization and Deserialization pretty slow and with 20-30 entities it took about 1 second to serialize -> deserialize -> serialize to client again.

Tried to replace this serialization to Json.Net - no luck. I think, that ConvertData, which uses reflections, isn't too fast.
Is there any way to rewrite it or to throw it away?

Hmm... Ok, I will research this question.

it's not an issue with KnockoutUtilities but a javascript one.
as Andrey said, the best way to avoid this is to convert it to string

Anyway the best way is to use proper serializer/deserializer like json.NET.
