Convert json to a C# array?

by

just take the string and use the JavaScriptSerializer to deserialize it into a native object. For example, having this json:

string json = "[{Name:'John Simith',Age:35},{Name:'Pablo Perez',Age:34}]";

You’d need to create a C# class called, for example, Person defined as so:

public class Person
{
 public int Age {get;set;}
 public string Name {get;set;}
}

You can now deserialize the JSON string into an array of Person by doing:

JavaScriptSerializer js = new JavaScriptSerializer();
Person [] persons =  js.Deserialize<Person[]>(json);

Here’s a link to JavaScriptSerializer documentation.

Note: my code above was not tested but that’s the idea Tested it. Unless you are doing something “exotic”, you should be fine using the JavascriptSerializer.
