Feature request: Option to allow for optional properties about phpserializernet HOT 3 CLOSED

I guess supporting [Optional] in addition to the AllowExcessKeys option would be useful. If you want to try that, have a look at where I read AllowExcessKeys in PhpDeserializer.cs

from phpserializernet.

I'm not entirely sure I follow your request correctly.

Wouldn't just this work?

[PhpProperty("supports")]
public ParcelAllocationSupportsPhpModel Supports { get; set; } = new(); // add initial default data to the ctor to your liking.

and

public static ParcelAllocationWithSupportPhpModel Deserialize(string input) =>
    PhpSerialization.Deserialize<ParcelAllocationWithSupportPhpModel>(
        input,
        new PhpDeserializationOptions() { AllowExcessKeys = true }
    );

    );

I messed something up somwhere and that led me to believe 'AllowExcessKeys' meant 'Allow excess keys but throw if they are missing' - which is not the case, properties that are not in the input string just get defaulted like your sample illustrates.
