.NET GENES

Hello, Here's a simple demonstration on how to parse JSON data using .NET's JavaScriptSerializer class. Given the sample JSON data below: { "catalog": { "book": [ { "id": "bk101" , "author": "Gambardella, Matthew" , "title": "XML Developer's Guide" , "genre": "Computer" , "price": "44.95" , "publish_date": "2000-10-01" , "description": "An in-depth look at creating applications with XML." }, { "id": "bk102" , "author": "Ralls, Kim" , "title": "Midnight Rain" , "genre": "Fantasy" , "price": "5.95" , "publish_date": "2000-12-16" , "description": &q

These are the steps for using it in .NET 4.0 1. Create a new console application 2. Change the target to dot.net 4 instead of Client Profile 3. Add a reference to System.Web.Extensions (4.0) 4. Got access to JavaScriptSerializer in Program.cs now :-) Source: Cannot Find Javascript Serializer in .NET 4.0
