Converting PHP arrays to a C# Dictionary
PHP array to C# Dictionary conversion.
Removed the previous code, it was a totally bad idea and awful code. Now I'm passing the Json array to Silverlight using json_encode() and using Newtonsoft.Json library with the following simple function:
public Dictionary<string, object> Parse(string array)
{
Dictionary<string, object> result = new Dictionary<string, object>();
Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JObject obj = (Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JObject)JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(array);
foreach (KeyValuePair<string, Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JToken> kvp in obj)
{
if (kvp.Value.ToString().Contains('{'))
{
result.Add(kvp.Key, Parse(kvp.Value.ToString().Replace("[", "").Replace("]", "")));
}
else
{
result.Add(kvp.Key, kvp.Value.ToString());
}
}
return result;
}
