get a c# object from json

I have this call 

request.Content = new StringContent(json, Encoding.UTF8, "application/json");

and get back a json object like

{“Email”:"[email protected]",”Name”:”Stefan”}

How I get the value form the string back in an object? The user object is user.email and user.name .

Regards Stefan

there are many ways to achieve this:

  1. you can use JSON.NET to work with json:

    JObject jObject = JObject.Parse(json);
string Name = (string)jObject["Name"];
string Email = (string)jObject["Email"];

  2. you can use JavascriptSerilizer

    JavaScriptSerializer json_serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
User user = (User)json_serializer.DeserializeObject(json);

  3. or you can use DataContractJsonSerilizer like this:

    public static T Deserialize<T>(string json)
{
  T obj = Activator.CreateInstance<T>();
  MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(json));
  DataContractJsonSerializer serializer = new DataContractJsonSerializer(obj.GetType());
  obj = (T)serializer.ReadObject(ms);
  ms.Close();
  return obj;
}
