[c#] How to return JSon object

I am using a jQuery plugin that need a JSON object with following structure(I will be retrieving the values from database):

{ results: [
    { id: "1", value: "ABC", info: "ABC" },
    { id: "2", value: "JKL", info: "JKL" },
    { id: "3", value: "XYZ", info: "XYZ" }
] }

Here is my class:

public class results
{
    int _id;
    string _value;
    string _info;

    public int id
    {
        get
        {
            return _id;
        }
        set
        {
            _id = value;
        }
    }
    public string value
    {
        get
        {
            return _value;
        }
        set
        {
            _value = value;
        }
    }
    public string info
    {
        get
        {
            return _info;
        }
        set
        {
            _info = value;
        }
    }
}

This is the way I serialize it:

results result = new results();
result.id = 1;
result.value = "ABC";
result.info = "ABC";
string json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(result);

But this will return only one row. Can you please help me in returning more than one result? How can I get the result in the format specified above?

You only have one row to serialize. Try something like this :

List<results> resultRows = new List<results>

resultRows.Add(new results{id = 1, value="ABC", info="ABC"});
resultRows.Add(new results{id = 2, value="XYZ", info="XYZ"});

string json = JavaScriptSerializer.Serialize(new { results = resultRows});

• Edit to match OP's original json output

** Edit 2 : sorry, but I missed that he was using JSON.NET. Using the JavaScriptSerializer the above code produces this result :

{"results":[{"id":1,"value":"ABC","info":"ABC"},{"id":2,"value":"XYZ","info":"XYZ"}]}

First of all, there's no such thing as a JSON object. What you've got in your question is a JavaScript object literal (see here for a great discussion on the difference). Here's how you would go about serializing what you've got to JSON though:

I would use an anonymous type filled with your results type:

string json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(new
{
    results = new List<Result>()
    {
        new Result { id = 1, value = "ABC", info = "ABC" },
        new Result { id = 2, value = "JKL", info = "JKL" }
    }
});

Also, note that the generated JSON has result items with ids of type Number instead of strings. I doubt this will be a problem, but it would be easy enough to change the type of id to string in the C#.

I'd also tweak your results type and get rid of the backing fields:

public class Result
{
    public int id { get ;set; }
    public string value { get; set; }
    public string info { get; set; }
}

Furthermore, classes conventionally are PascalCased and not camelCased.

Here's the generated JSON from the code above:

{
  "results": [
    {
      "id": 1,
      "value": "ABC",
      "info": "ABC"
    },
    {
      "id": 2,
      "value": "JKL",
      "info": "JKL"
    }
  ]
}
