Nested Containers in AX 2012 R2

Scenario:

An Aif Web Service handles incoming calls from a web application. There is a Visual Studio project in the AOS that contains objects that the service uses to communicate with other applications.

I need to move some of that processing that happens after the service call is made to the SysOperationFramework.

The SOF can't directly work with classes from our Visual Studio project -- so I need to make them into a container (these objects, or their data, don't exist in AX yet, they've just been passed in to the Aif Web Service).

Example class Structure

Class Parent
{
    List<SubClass> Child;
    List<SubClass2> Child2;

    int id;
    str name;

}

How can I pack this data in to a container (probably multiple containers) so that it can be reconstructed by unpack()ing the container when the actual batch process is running?

It sounds like you just need to use the SysOperationHelper class methods:

SysOperationHelper::base64Encode(...)

SysOperationHelper::base64Decode(...)

See http://www.artofcreation.be/2011/08/22/ax2012-sysoperation-part-1-data-contracts-and-service-operations/ for some examples of use.
