	description: "[
					Object Helper to deserialize a string in JSON format to an object in the domain model
					How to write a converter. Suppose we have the following class
					
					PERSON
						id: INTEGER_64                 
						name: STRING
						address: ADDRESS
						hobbies: LIST [STRING]
						photos: LIST [PHOTOS]
				
					conversion:
					First go to the feature from_json_to_`model' and then start to set
					the object attibures as follow.
					
					STRING, INTEGER, etc use the following pattern
		
						Result.set_id (integer_64_value_from_json (a_json, "id"))
						Result.set_name (string_value_from_json (a_json, "name"))
		
					OBJECTS
					When you have an attribute that's an object itself (part of the domain) you will need to first
					get JSON_OBJECT to the corresponding attribute and then use the related feature
					`from_json_to_model' in this case from_json_to_address (l_address)
					 
						if attached {JSON_OBJECT} json_value (a_json, "address") as l_address then
							Result.set_address(from_json_to_address (l_address))
						end	
						
					LIST [STRING] or other simple types.
						
					In the case of a list of string we need to do something similar but we need to traverse the array
					We will need a local variable to build the lists.
					
					if attached {JSON_ARRAY} json_value (a_json, "hobbies") as l_array then
						create {ARRAYED_LIST [STRING]} l_hobbies.make (l_array.count)
						across l_array as ic loop
							if attached {JSON_STRING} ic.item as l_value then
								l_hobbies.force (l_value.unescaped_string_8)
							end
						end
						Result.set_hobbies (l_hobbies)
					end	
					
					LIST [PHOTOS]
					This case is similar to the previous, but in this case the element is
					an object, so we will need to use the feature `from_json_to_model', here 
					we again need a local variable to build a temporary list of photos.
					
					if attached {JSON_ARRAY} json_value (a_json, "photos") as l_array then
						create {ARRAYED_LIST [PHOTOS]} l_photos.make (l_array.count)
						across
							l_array as ic
						loop
							l_photos.force (from_json_to_photos (ic.item))
						end
						Result.set_photos (l_photos)
					end
