Description

I am getting the below error when trying to parse a json object into class object.

#<NoMethodError: undefined method `encode' for OpenStruct:Class>

Code I am using:

# json_string = {"latitude":409146138,"longitude":124678384}
object = JSON.parse(json_string, object_class: OpenStruct)

Target Object looks like this:
<Routeguide::Point: latitude: 409146138, longitude: -746188906>

Start by reproducing the JSON.parse call with object_class: OpenStruct and read the OpenStruct implementation involved in the error. Compare the reported NoMethodError with the expected Routeguide::Point-style object; the issue is resolved when the cause and expected parsing behavior are established.
