Read JSON string as key value

Question

I have following json:

{   
    \"serverTime\": \"2013-08-12 02:45:55,558\",
    \"data\": [
        {
            \"key1\": 1,
            \"key2\": {},

If you're not averse to using Json.NET, you can do this:

var jsonString = @"
{   
    ""serverTime"": ""2013-08-12 02:45:55,558"",
    ""data"": [
        {
            ""key1"": 1,
            ""key2"": {},
            ""key3"": {
                ""key4"": [
                    """"
                ],
                ""key5"": ""test2""
            },
            ""key7"": 0
        },
        {
            ""key8"": 1,
            ""key9"": {},
            ""key10"": {
                ""key4"": [
                    """"
                ],
                ""key9"": ""test2""
            },
            ""key11"": 0
        }
    ] 
}";

var jsonResult = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject>(jsonString);
var firstItem = jsonResult["data"][0];

firstItem would be an array of the first item in the data array:

Hope this helps.
