Deserializing dates with dd/MM/yyyy format using Json.Net

by

You can use an IsoDateTimeConverter and specify the DateTimeFormat to get the result you want, e.g.:

MyObject obj = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<MyObject>(jsonString, 
                   new IsoDateTimeConverter { DateTimeFormat = "dd/MM/yyyy" });

Demo:

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        string json = @"{ ""Date"" : ""09/12/2013"" }";

        MyObject obj = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<MyObject>(json, 
            new IsoDateTimeConverter { DateTimeFormat = "dd/MM/yyyy" });

        DateTime date = obj.Date;
        Console.WriteLine("day = " + date.Day);
        Console.WriteLine("month = " + date.Month);
        Console.WriteLine("year = " + date.Year);
    }
}

class MyObject
{
    public DateTime Date { get; set; }
}

Output:

day = 9
month = 12
year = 2013
