Have you tried using Json.NET - Jon Skeet 2012-04-04 19:32

I dont know how to use it in my applicaton. :( Can u please help me about how to do it - anuj.bhartiya 2012-04-04 19:36

Use http://json2csharp.com/ to create a class to deserialize to.

public class OFFER
{
    public string OFFER_ID { get; set; }
    public string OFFER_IMAGE { get; set; }
    public string OFFER { get; set; }
}

public class OfferResponse
{
    public List<OFFER> OFFERS { get; set; }
}

Then, using Json.NET:

var deserializedProduct = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<OfferResponse>(json);
