This code works for me:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Web.Script.Serialization;
namespace Json
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Console.WriteLine(DeserializeNames());
Console.ReadLine();
}
public static string DeserializeNames()
{
var jsonData = "{\"name\":[{\"last\":\"Smith\"},{\"last\":\"Doe\"}]}";
JavaScriptSerializer ser = new JavaScriptSerializer();
nameList myNames = ser.Deserialize<nameList>(jsonData);
return ser.Serialize(myNames);
}
//Class descriptions
public class name
{
public string last { get; set; }
}
public class nameList
{
public List<name> name { get; set; }
}
}
}
