Question

what is the best way to deserialize array of json objects without asp.net?

Json format: {"results" : [ { "a": "value A", "b": "value B"}, { "c": "value C", "d": "value D"}]}

Please note: Json object should be deserialized into .Net object.

Answer 1

With JavaScript you'd do:

var myObj = eval('(' + jsonString + ')');

Answer 2

A lot of implementations in different languages are provided at http://www.json.org/ (the bottom of the page)

EDIT: apparently that page doesn't mention the built in JSON support while it does exist in .Net 3.5 according to MSDN

Answer 3

In PHP, for instance, you can do:

$json = json_decode($json_string);

and that will convert your JSON into an object/array

Answer 4

The Json.NET library, available here:

Works great.
