Making SObject as Serializable

Question

I am executing SOQL queries using SOAP API.It might result in Account or Opportunity or other salesforce data.

I want to use the result i.e SObject to be passed to a another API.

But the target API accepts only Serializable objects

So how can I make SObject as serializable?

Is there a way to generate SObject class itself as a serializable?

Apex has a native JSON support. You can use the serializeand deserialize methods to serialize the objects. Here is a example.

Contact con = [SELECT Id, LastName, AccountId FROM Contact LIMIT 1]; 
// Set additional field
con.FirstName = 'Joe'; 
String jsonstring = Json.serialize(con); 
System.debug(jsonstring);
