title: Deserializing local NSString of JSON into objects via RestKit (no network download)
body: <p>Is it possible to deserialize an <code>NSString</code> of JSON into objects via RestKit? I checked the API list <a href="http://restkit.org/api/0.9/Classes/">here</a> and could not find something that would serve for this purpose. The closest I could find are the various parser classes that return <code>NSDictionary</code> after parsing the input. I assume RestKit uses these parsers after downloading the response so my thinking is that the functionality is available somewhere in RestKit but not exposed publicly.</p>
  
  <p>If I am not missing anything and this functionality is not exposed, what would be the alternatives? Two obvious ones do not look very promising: Get the resulting <code>NSDictionary</code> and try to deserialize myself (effectively reimplementing RestKit) or try to dive into RestKit source and see if this can be somehow exposed (looks tedious and error prone).</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance for any help.</p>
  
  <p>PS: The idea is that a string property on a deserialized object is actually the JSON representation of another set of objects (embedded JSON in a sense) and it is deserialized on demand during runtime. </p>
