Here is a sample code for a class:
using System;
public class AppEventsClass
{
public string title { get; set; }
public string description { get; set; }
}
Imagine retrieving the following JSON string after calling a remote webservice:
{"d":"[{"title": "test", "description": "test desc"}, {"title": "test2", "description": "desc test 2"}]"}
How can you convert this JSON string into a List<> of AppEventsClass using Newtonsoft?
I have attempted various solutions, but none seem to work effectively. For instance, I tried the following:
List<AppEventsClass> result = new List<AppEventsClass>();
result = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<List<AppEventsClass>>(content).ToList();
Below is an example of the .asmx file that serializes the string:
[ScriptMethod(UseHttpGet = true)]
public string GetEvents()
{
using (mySQLDataContext ctx = new secondosensoSQLDataContext())
{
List<eventi> eventiList = ctx.eventi.ToList();
List<AppEventsClass> eventiClassList = new List<AppEventsClass>();
for (int i = 0; i < eventiList.Count; i++)
{
AppEventsClass a = new AppEventsClass();
a.title = eventiList[i].titlolo_evento;
a.description = eventiList[i].descrizione_evento;
eventiClassList.Add(a);
}
var json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(eventiClassList);
return json;
}
}
