Cosuming JSON with JavaScriptSerializer returns NULL object

Question

My Json string:

    jsonString ="{"GetStatusResult":[{"CaseCompleteInd":"N","CaseNbr":"999999","InSurgeryNowInd":"Y","InRoomNowInd":"N"}]}";

My classes:

public class GetStatusResult
{
    public List<CaseModel> caseDetails { get; set; }
}

public class CaseModel
{
    public string CaseCompleteInd { get; set; }
    public string CaseConfirmNbr { get; set; }

    public string InSurgeryNowInd { get; set; }
    public string InRoomNowInd{ get; set; }
}

}

My code:

    GetStatusResult caseInfo = new GetStatusResult();

    JavaScriptSerializer jsSerializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();

    caseInfo = jsSerializer.Deserialize<GetStatusResult>(jsonString);

My Problem:

The object is always returning as NULL and the CaseModel details are not being populated. The JSON string obviously has data, but I feel that my class structure is somehow messed up with the root level class. It appears similar to other examples posted here and elsewhere, so I'm at a loss right now. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I presume you mean the caseInfo object is returning null? Where are you referencing the CaseModel class? I'm not seeing it. — Chris Barlow

If you modify your JSON string to

jsonString ="{"caseDetails":[{"CaseCompleteInd":"N","CaseNbr":"999999","InSurgeryNowInd":"Y","InRoomNowInd":"N"}]}";

then it should work.

Properties of JSON object correspond to the properties of .NET object having the same name.

Perfect. Thank you. I was not aware the naming had to be the same.
