::

    VariantMap dictionary;
    dictionary["bool"]  = true;
    dictionary["str"]   = "string";
    dictionary["int"]   = 1;
    dictionary["float"] = 2.0f;
    
    string data = Json::save(dictionary); // Serializing dictionary to string
    ....
    VariantMap result = Json::load(data).toMap(); // Resotoring it back
