Alternative to naming an c# class attribute '#' when converting files with mentioned attribute from json [duplicate]

I have a JSON request which has follwing structure:
"formats": {
"flash_embed": "http://a3.vikiassets.com/assets/vikiplayer-922746a667cfd38137a7e45df6ba1b95.swf?auto_play=true&language_codes=en&media_id=74965&partner=16&source=api_v3",
"m3u8": "http://wpc.354a.edgecastcdn.net/00354A/videos/encoded/74965/ios.m3u8",
"res-150p": "http://wpc.354a.edgecastcdn.net/00354A/videos/encoded/74965_mp4cell_150.mp4",
"res-240p": "http://wpc.354a.edgecastcdn.net/00354A/videos/encoded/74965_240p.mp4",
"res-270p": "http://wpc.354a.edgecastcdn.net/00354A/videos/encoded/74965_270p.mp4",
"res-360p": "http://wpc.354a.edgecastcdn.net/00354A/videos/encoded/74965_360p.mp4",
"res-480p": "http://wpc.354a.edgecastcdn.net/00354A/videos/encoded/74965_480p.mp4",
"res-720p": "http://wpc.354a.edgecastcdn.net/00354A/videos/encoded/74965_720p.mp4"
}
}
Now res-150p, says invalid name in C# and if I give another name to it then while desiralizing I am not getting any values, that is null inside res-150p.

You have to decorate your Formats properties with JsonProperty attributes to tell it what goes where if the name does not exactly match:
partial class Formats
{
[JsonProperty("res-150p")]
public string __invalid_name__res150p {get; set;}
}

JSON Deserializing Returns Null for Sub List

I'm attempting to deserialize the following json:
{"PatientNameID":{"ID":514,"Name":{"First":"Laura","Middle":"X","Last":"Coelho","Suffix":"","Full":"Laura X Coelho","Preferred":""}},"PatientNumber":"254","ChartNumber":"254","Gender":{"LookupType":"Gender","Code":"F","Description":"Female","Order":1,"Active":true,"AlternateCodes":null},"DOB":"4/9/1953","PhoneNumber":"3521029496","SSN":"*****0161"}
This is the class and subclasses into which I'm trying to deserialize the above JSON:
public class PatientList3
{
public Pat PatientNameID { get; set; }
public string PatientNumber { get; set; }
public string ChartNumber { get; set; }
public Gender2 Gender { get; set; }
public string DOB { get; set; }
public string PhoneNumber { get; set; }
public string SSN { get; set; }
}
public class Pat
{
public int ID { get; set; }
public PtName Name { get; set; }
}
public class PtName
{
public string First { get; set; }
public string Middle { get; set; }
public string Last { get; set; }
public string Suffix { get; set; }
public string Full { get; set; }
public string Preferred { get; set; }
}
public class Gender2
{
string LookupType { get; set; }
string Code { get; set; }
string Description { get; set; }
int Order { get; set; }
bool Active { get; set; }
List<AlternateCodes> AlternateCodes { get; set; }
}
public class AlternateCodes
{
string Code { get; set; }
string Description { get; set; }
string CodeSystem { get; set; }
string CodeSystemName { get; set; }
}
Everything goes well when I deserialize it except all of the values in the Gender2 class are null.
I've referred to the following two posts for answers but nothing seems to be doing to trick.
JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<T>(JsonString) returning all Properties<T> as Null
DeSerializing JSON returns null C#

Fix the properties on Gender2 & AlternateCodes they are not public! The deserializer will not be able to find your any of your properties so that is probably the reason this fails to populate.

The problem is with access modifiers of properties Gender2 and AlternateCodes class, default access modifiers for properties is private. You should change it to:
public class Gender2
{
public string LookupType { get; set; }
public string Code { get; set; }
public string Description { get; set; }
public int Order { get; set; }
public bool Active { get; set; }
public List<AlternateCodes> AlternateCodes { get; set; }
}
public class AlternateCodes
{
public string Code { get; set; }
public string Description { get; set; }
public string CodeSystem { get; set; }
public string CodeSystemName { get; set; }
}
After setting properties to public it deserializes successfully:

How should I handle Wordpress rest json in C# when json2csharp is returning an invalid name? [duplicate]

Json string deserialization C#

I have this json
and i want to deserialize it so I can get each object's value for example:
"icon_url": "-9a81dlWLwJ2UUGcVs_nsVtzdOEdtWwKGZZLQHTxDZ7I56KU0Zwwo4NUX4oFJZEHLbXH5ApeO4YmlhxYQknCRvCo04DEVlxkKgpouLWzKjhzw8zFdC5K092kl5SClMj3PLXFhGpC_Pp8j-3I4IG7i1Hn_UI-Nmj3ItDGe1BoN1mCr1G4xL_vhMS8tcmcn3JhuihwsHvbzQv3309k3tBw8A",
The problem is I can make the class(es) that I need so I can deserialize the json because the json string has nested objects.

I used json2csharp to help me generate classes. After some merging and cleaning up, this is what I got:
public class InventoryItem
{
public string id { get; set; }
public string classid { get; set; }
public string instanceid { get; set; }
public string amount { get; set; }
public int pos { get; set; }
}
public class AppData
{
public string def_index { get; set; }
public int? is_itemset_name { get; set; }
public int? limited { get; set; }
}
public class Description
{
public string type { get; set; }
public string value { get; set; }
public string color { get; set; }
public AppData app_data { get; set; }
}
public class Action
{
public string name { get; set; }
public string link { get; set; }
}
public class Tag
{
public string internal_name { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public string category { get; set; }
public string category_name { get; set; }
public string color { get; set; }
}
public class RgDescription
{
public string appid { get; set; }
public string classid { get; set; }
public string instanceid { get; set; }
public string icon_url { get; set; }
public string icon_url_large { get; set; }
public string icon_drag_url { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public string market_hash_name { get; set; }
public string market_name { get; set; }
public string name_color { get; set; }
public string background_color { get; set; }
public string type { get; set; }
public int tradable { get; set; }
public int marketable { get; set; }
public int commodity { get; set; }
public string market_tradable_restriction { get; set; }
public List<Description> descriptions { get; set; }
public List<Action> actions { get; set; }
public List<Action> market_actions { get; set; }
public List<Tag> tags { get; set; }
}
public class RootObject
{
public bool success { get; set; }
public IDictionary<string, InventoryItem> rgInventory { get; set; }
public List<object> rgCurrency { get; set; }
public IDictionary<string, RgDescription> rgDescriptions { get; set; }
public bool more { get; set; }
public bool more_start { get; set; }
}
These appear to work correctly, you can deserialize and serialize with code like this:
var obj = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<RootObject>(oldString);
Console.WriteLine(obj.rgDescriptions["310776560_302028390"].icon_url); // e.g.
var newString = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(obj,
new JsonSerializerSettings { NullValueHandling = NullValueHandling.Ignore });
// null value handling is optional, the above makes it a little more like the source string

Error in deserialize json in C#

here is my Get Set Method Class
public class RechargeGridDTO
{
public String from { get; set; }
public String to { get; set; }
public String errormsg { get; set; }
public String status { get; set; }
public RechargeInnerMsgGridInfo message { get; set; }
public String type { get; set; }
public String reqid { get; set; }
}
public class RechargeInnerMsgGridInfo

public String mob {get;set;}
public String rctype { get; set; }
public String rcservice { get; set; }
public String rcmobile { get; set; }
public String rcamt { get; set; }
public String rcpin { get; set; }
public String mytxid { get; set; }

public String rcbal { get; set; }
public String rcsimbal { get; set; }
public String rcremark { get; set; }
public String rcchnnl { get; set; }
}
this is the json response I wanted to parse i-e:
msg = {
"from":"nishantuser",
"to":"smpp",
"errormsg":null,
"status":"s",
"message":
{
"mob":"9999999999",
"rctype":"Rr",
"rcservice":"Aircel",
"rcmobile":"8460149820",
"rcamt":"20",
"rcpin":"1234",
"mytxid":"4850",
"optxid":GUJNishant123,
"txid":null,
"rcstatus":s,
"rcmsg":null,
"rctime":null,
"rcbal":null,
"rcsimbal":null,
"rcremark":null,
"rcchnnl":null
},
"type":"RECHARGE",
"reqid":"4850"
}
when i am parsing this json Response then getting error...
var ResponseData = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<RechargeGridDTO>(msg);
please give me the solution how i can parse this type of Response in using JsonConvert in C#

"optxid":GUJNishant123,
"rcstatus":s,
Those parts are not valid JSON. Strings need to be quoted:
"optxid":"GUJNishant123",
"rcstatus":"s",
