Deserializing a List of Objects that contain a Dictionary

Question

I\'ve seen a lot of examples that seem to indicate that what I\'m doing should work, but for whatever reason, it doesn\'t. I\'m trying to deserialize a collection of objects

Answer 1

Yeah true, the deserializers dont deserialize the dictornary object especailly if you have any complex types and dates. The solution for that is use Newtonsoft.Json use Jobject to deserialize you can take this as an example and try.. In your case you can take this to var or Jobject

    JArray resources=(JArray)JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(objJson);
                     itemStores = resources.Select(resource => new Resource`enter code here`
                     {
                         SpaceUsed = long.Parse(resource["indexDiskMB"].ToString()),
                         ItemId =resource["id"].ToString(),
                         CountItems =Int32.Parse(resource["numItems"].ToString()),
                         ItemType=resource["type"].ToString()

                     }).ToList();
