Deserialize XML elements - c#

I have some problems deserializing my XML into class.
This is the XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<InterestRates>
<!--Type A -->

When I deserialize the XML into my root class InterestRates, all the InterestRate_X collections are empty. How can this be fixed?

The reason deserialization does not work is that you have marked the interest rate arrays in your InterestRates_X types with [XmlArray], e.g.:
[XmlType("InterestRates_B")]
public class InterestRates_B
{
[XmlArray("InterestRate_B")]
[XmlArrayItem("InterestRate_B", typeof(InterestRate_B))]
public InterestRate_B[] InterestRate_B { get; set; }
}
This indicates that the InterestRate_X collections are to be serialized within a container element, like so:
<InterestRates>
<InterestRates_B>
<InterestRate_B> <!--The extra [XmlArray] container element -->
<InterestRate_B>
<ValidFrom>2016-05-01</ValidFrom>
<ValidTo></ValidTo>
<Rate>0.05</Rate>
<Rate2>2.05</Rate2>
</InterestRate_B>
</InterestRate_B>
Since your actual XML does not have this extra level of nesting, deserialization fails.
The solution is to use [XmlElement]:
[XmlType("InterestRates_A")]
public class InterestRates_A
{
[XmlElement("InterestRate_A")]
public InterestRate_A[] InterestRate_A { get; set; }
}
[XmlType("InterestRates_B")]
public class InterestRates_B
{
[XmlElement("InterestRate_B")]
public InterestRate_B[] InterestRate_B { get; set; }
}
[XmlType("InterestRates_C")]
public class InterestRates_C
{
[XmlElement("InterestRate_C")]
public InterestRate_C[] InterestRate_C { get; set; }
}
[XmlType("InterestRates_D")]
public class InterestRates_D
{
[XmlElement("InterestRate_D")]
public InterestRate_D[] InterestRate_D { get; set; }
}
[XmlType("InterestRates_E")]
public class InterestRates_E
{
[XmlElement("InterestRate_E")]
public InterestRate_E[] InterestRate_E { get; set; }
}
[XmlType("InterestRates_F")]
public class InterestRates_F
{
[XmlElement("InterestRate_F")]
public InterestRate_F[] InterestRate_F { get; set; }
}
Sample fiddle.
Alternatively, you could completely eliminate your intermediate InterestRates_X types and merge all your InterestRate_X types into a single type, thereby simplifying your data model as follows:
[XmlRoot("InterestRates")]
public class InterestRates
{
[XmlArray("InterestRates_A")]
[XmlArrayItem("InterestRate_A")]
public InterestRate [] InterestRates_A { get; set; }
[XmlArray("InterestRates_B")]
[XmlArrayItem("InterestRate_B")]
public InterestRate [] InterestRates_B { get; set; }
[XmlArray("InterestRates_C")]
[XmlArrayItem("InterestRate_C")]
public InterestRate [] InterestRates_C { get; set; }
[XmlArray("InterestRates_D")]
[XmlArrayItem("InterestRate_D")]
public InterestRate [] InterestRates_D { get; set; }
[XmlArray("InterestRates_E")]
[XmlArrayItem("InterestRate_E")]
public InterestRate [] InterestRates_E { get; set; }
[XmlArray("InterestRates_F")]
[XmlArrayItem("InterestRate_F")]
public InterestRate [] InterestRates_F { get; set; }
}
public class InterestRate
{
[XmlElement("ValidFrom")]
public string ValidFrom { get; set; }
[XmlElement("ValidTo")]
public string ValidTo { get; set; }
[XmlElement("Rate")]
public string Rate { get; set; }
[XmlElement("Rate2")]
public string Rate2 { get; set; }
}

but I receive this error:
There is an error in XML document (2, 2).
<Response xmlns='http://pippoonboarding.eu'> was not expected.
What does the error mean? What should I do?
Following code works. Had to change a few integers to strings in class definitions.

namespace ConsoleApplication2

}
public class XmlDeserializer

public XmlDeserializer(string filename)
{
XmlReader reader = XmlReader.Create(filename);
XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(Root));
Root response = (Root)serializer.Deserialize(reader);
}
[XmlRoot(ElementName = "Response", Namespace = "http://pippoonboarding.eu")]

C# Newtonsoft deserialize JSON array and sometimes no array

It's about the eBay API "GetOrders".
If I have more than one order in the given period of time my following code works. But if only one order is read then the "OrderArray.Order" is not an array and this gives the following exception.
Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializationException: 'Cannot deserialize the current JSON object (e.g. {"name":"value"}) into type 'Order[]' because the type requires a JSON array (e.g. [1,2,3]) to deserialize correctly.
To fix this error either change the JSON to a JSON array (e.g. [1,2,3]) or change the deserialized type so that it is a normal .NET type (e.g. not a primitive type like integer, not a collection type like an array or List<T>) that can be deserialized from a JSON object. JsonObjectAttribute can also be added to the type to force it to deserialize from a JSON object.
Path 'GetOrdersResponse.OrderArray.Order.OrderID', line 1, position 352.'
Here my Code:
GetOrdersResponseJSON orderResp = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<GetOrdersResponseJSON>(json);
foreach (var item in orderResp.GetOrdersResponse.OrderArray.Order)
{
Console.WriteLine(item.TransactionArray.Transaction.Buyer.Email);

What can I do to make it work with only one order (without array) and with multiple orders (with array)? Since I would like to continue using newtonsoft json it would be nice if I get a solution with newtonsoft json!
Here is an example of the json that I get:
// One Order I get as JSON:
[...]
"OrderArray": {
"Order": {
[...]
// Multiple Orders I get as JSON:
[...]
"OrderArray": {
"Order": [
[...]
So definitely once an array and once an object!
We can use custom JSONConverter
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using Newtonsoft.Json;
using Newtonsoft.Json.Linq;
namespace RabbitMQPoc
{
public class Program
{
public static void Main(string[] args)

As answered here How to handle both a single item and an array for the same property using JSON.net

c# parse nested JSON that doesn't use JSON arrays

I have a nested json string, instead of using arrays the next level is another json structure. This creates a mess of deserializing using traditional methods.
Most other answers dealing with parsing json have clearly defined structures, and in most cases can be solved using online tools such as http://json2csharp.com/. But because this JSON doesn't use arrays properly I'm having trouble coming up with a solution to deserialize it.
For example:
{
"time":1516824466,
"global":{
"workers":1,
"hashrate":0
},
"algos":{
"scrypt-n":{
"workers":1,
"hashrate":79752.92436043094,
"hashrateString":"79.75 KH"
}
},
"pools":{
"garlicoin":{
"name":"garlicoin",
"symbol":"GRLC",
"algorithm":"scrypt-n",
"poolStats":{
"validShares":"22855",
"validBlocks":"3",
"invalidShares":"59",
"invalidRate":"0.0026",
"totalPaid":"296.42722209999999999"
},
"blocks":{
"pending":0,
"confirmed":2,
"orphaned":1
},
"workers":{
"Gf3ZXqhWKkm8qLhSHvyrawiCiooYeU9eQu":{
"shares":365.07991498000007,
"invalidshares":0,
"hashrate":79752.92436043094,
"hashrateString":"79.75 KH"
},
"Gz2Llan6hTkm8qLhSHh34awiCiooYe17heT":{
"shares":365.07991498000007,
"invalidshares":0,
"hashrate":79752.92436043094,
"hashrateString":"79.75 KH"
}
},
"hashrate":79752.92436043094,
"workerCount":1,
"hashrateString":"79.75 KH"
}
}
}
I'm having trouble deserializing these two parts specifically:
"algos":{
"scrypt-n":{
"workers":1,
"hashrate":79752.92436043094,
"hashrateString":"79.75 KH"
}
},
"workers":{
"Gf3ZXqhWKkm8qLhSHvyrawiCiooYeU9eQu":{
"shares":365.07991498000007,
"invalidshares":0,
"hashrate":79752.92436043094,
"hashrateString":"79.75 KH"
},
"Gz2Llan6hTkm8qLhSHh34awiCiooYe17heT":{
"shares":365.07991498000007,
"invalidshares":0,
"hashrate":79752.92436043094,
"hashrateString":"79.75 KH"
}
},

Algos, Pools and Workers have named properties as childrens, you can't deserialize them as List<T> since they are Dictionary<string, T>,

Deserialize JSON to C# Object - No Data being deserialized

Found an odd issue when trying to deserialize a JSON string into a C# Object. It "seems" to perform the operation successfully (as in it does not throw any exception etc), however the outputted POCO contains does not contain any data from the JSON string, it only contains type default data (nulls,"", 0 etc). I have tried this process with other JSON and it works fine.

Any ideas - Im sure I have missed something glaringly obvious but I cannot see it. Using .NET 4.5
Help appreciated.

I used http://json2csharp.com/, and the code is like this, so you should look at it.

Look like you JSON string is not in correct format that you are trying to deserialize. For example i have not find show property in the C# class but it present in JSON.
So this issue I couldn't figure out in the night or early in the morning - it took me till this afternoon until I realised that I was had the wrong JSON!!, so no wonder it wasn't working! I got mixed up with a few different apis that provided JSON. Thanks to those who had pointed out that the class looks wrong, made me double check my code and realise the simplicity of this issue. Kinda needed some rubber ducking to spot the problem. Cheers

How to parse Json from the RootObject?

I am trying to parse JSON response so I created some classes.
Actually I want Leg and Flight class element value. I am trying to get those element value from RootObject but I don't know how to do this. I googled but I am little bit confuse.
I paste my JSON respose , Classes !!
JSON Response :

}
public class RootObject
{
public string kind { get; set; }
public Trips trips { get; set; }
}
Code :
var obj0 = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<RootObject>(responsedata);
Here I got only Trip class element . I want the Leg and Flight class element.
If you want to find information for a specific leg, you need to use Linq to traverse the tree. For example, if you just know the leg id, you could do something like this:
var allLegs = obj0.trips.tripOption.SelectMany(to => to.slice.SelectMany(sl => sl.segment.Select(sg => sg.leg)));
var leg = allLegs.FirstOrDefault(l => l.id == "yourId");
The query for retrieving a flight would be similar. You could also filter by tripOption id to get a specific tripOption and then retrieve flights or legs that are associated with it.
