Deserializing json to anonymous object in c#

Question

How do I convert a string of json formatted data into an anonymous object?

Answer 1

using Newtonsoft.Json, use DeserializeAnonymousType:

string json = GetJsonString();
var anonType = new { Order = new Order(), Account = new Account() };
var anonTypeList = new []{ anonType }.ToList(); //Trick if you have a list of anonType
var jsonResponse = JsonConvert.DeserializeAnonymousType(json, anonTypeList);
