parse Json text to C# object in asp mvc 4

Question

I have a huge amount of customized attributes I want to save them in the DataBase, I was confused of how to store them in the database, i thought of storing them as a string separating them by

(= => name , value) (; => attribute , attribute) but the code wasn't elegant at all!

so i stat thinking of saving them as Json string but I couldn't found a Json to object parser

while we need only to call json() to parse object to json string

is there a better way than using json string and is there json string parser provided ?

Why don't you save them just one by one in an key/value table? — Jan

Try to use System.Web.Script.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer, here is example:

var yourObject = new JavaScriptSerializer().Deserialize<YourType>(strInput)

or

var yourObject = new JavaScriptSerializer().Deserialize(strInput)

Awesome, no need of Json.net

Thanks, +1. FYI, this class is found in the System.Web.Extensions dll.

In, var yourObject = new JavaScriptSerializer().Deserialize(strInput), Deserialize takes on more input parameter of type.. it does not work directly by specifying the string. !!

Many people use Json.net for serialization

var log  = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<YourObject>(logJson)

and the other direction

  var logJson = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(log);

You can use $.parseJSON, try this just for you to see the txt data:

var info = $.parseJSON(data);
 alert(info);

Thanks Sir, but what i want is server-side parsing ... thanks again.

use var js = JavaScriptSerializer.serialize(object), then use StringBuilder.append(js);
