JSON.NET deserialize/serialize JsonProperty JsonObject

Question

I have a question for deserialize/serialize with the Newtonsoft JSON.NET library:

I receive this json :

 {
    \"customerName\" : \"Lorem\",
    \"id         


        

Answer 1

You need to make custom type for "attribute" like:

    public class Attribute {

        [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "nbrOfUse")]
        public int _nbrOfUse { get; set; }
        [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "streetType")]
        [Display(Name = "lastUse", ResourceType = typeof(AccountModels))]
        public string _lastUse { get; set; }

    }

And make an Object of Attribute class in your Address class.

Answer 2

One possible solution you could use, which might look a bit hacky, would be to manipulate the JSON string before parsing it, using a regex for example.

You would identify and replace

"attribute" : {
   "nbrOfUse" : 1,
   "lastUse" : "2013-01-03T09:57:28-0500"
 }

with

"lastUse" : "2013-01-03T09:57:28-0500"

Then, your serializer would identify a DateTime? property named "lastUsed"
