RPTaskResult does not deserialize RPStepResult in results

[jeyjey626]

When deserializing RPTaskResult, all results in results map are deserialized as RPResult, not RPStepResult, resulting in loss of information.

Hi @jeyjey626 - I've looked into this.

The reason why this happens is because the different result objects have never been designed to be de-serialized from JSON into Dart objects. Normally, you would take the Dart result object and serialize it to JSON (using the toJson function) and save it to a file or database.

We never thought that you would need to read this JSON again and de-serialize it back to the app.

So - if I'm to change this, I need to know why you are doing this. What is the use case?

This turned out to be an issue in the carp study app;
