C#, converting string to Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JToken










0














In a C# project I am receiving a Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JObject and iterate over its keys, values



public static void info(JObject aInfoJSON)
foreach(var it in aInfoJSON)
if (it.Key.Equals("str"))/*do something*/
if (it.Value.Equals(?))/*so something*/




here the it.Key type is string but the it.Value is Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JToken. passing "something" never if condition becomes true nor passing "something" and JToken.parse("something") throws exception.




Newtonsoft.Json.JsonReaderException: 'Unexpected character encountered while parsing value: s. Path '', line 0, position 0.'




a sample received JObject is like : "name": "systems api", "version": "11.0.7.72", "apiVersion": "v1"



How should I do this comparison ?

    If you need to traverse the whole thing, deserializing it might be easier. Otherwise - throws exception is vague and not helpful

  • What sort of object do you want ? to be? Should it correspond to a string-valued JSON primitive only, or could it be anything at all such as something that serializes to a JSON object or array?

  • @dbc any type no matter just want to compare it. edited question. for instance for that JObject received for first iteration it = [name, systems api]. now any type that I can check it.Value is system api, string, number, hashcode,...

    Neither "something" nor "something" is valid Json (hence why JToken.Parse complains). Since it seems from your question that you want to manually parse/process Json, i would recommend you (re-)familiarize yourself with the JSON data format.. ;-)

With JValue you can pick up the value type and implement something along those lines.



public static void info(JObject aInfoJSON){
foreach(var it in aInfoJSON)
if (it.Key.Equals("str"))/*do something*/

switch(it.Value.Type)

case JToken.String:
if (it.Value.Value<string>().Equals("?"))
/*so something*/
case JToken.Float:
if(it.Value.Value<Float>().Equals(0));
/*so something*/
