JsonObject JsonObject JsonObject Class
Definition
Represents a JSON object containing a collection of name and JsonValue pairs.
JsonObject is an activatable class that implements JsonValue and the IMap(String, IJsonValue) interface such that its name/value pairs can be manipulated like a dictionary. When there are values with duplicated names, the last name/value pair will be stored.

Remarks
For an example of how these class methods are used to parse an object from a JSON string and convert it into a JsonObject object, update the name/value pairs the object contains, and then serialize the updated JsonObject object as a JSON string, see Using JavaScript Object Notation (JSON).

Parse(String) Parse(String) Parse(String)
Parses the specified JSON string that represents a JsonObject into a JSON value.
Note
This will throw an exception if the provided JSON string is not valid. Use of JsonObject.TryParse is a recommended alternative. A TryParse call will return a boolean value to indicate success or failure and, if successful, the resultant JsonObject.
public static JsonObject Parse(String input)public static JsonObject Parse(String input)Public Static Function Parse(input As String) As JsonObject
- input
- System.String System.String System.String
The specified JSON string.
- Attributes
Remarks
This method may only be called when the ValueType is Null. If the value contained in the specified JSON string is a String, a Number or a Boolean, the ValueType will be updated and the actual value can then be accessed through the GetString, GetNumber or GetBoolean methods. If Parse fails due to an invalid JSON string or resource allocation errors, the ValueType will not be changed.
When implemented on the subclass JsonObject, this method requires the specified input string to be a valid JSON object value. When implemented on the subclass JsonArray, this method requires the specified input string to be a valid JSON array value. The original object state will be overwritten when JsonObject.@Windows.Data.Json.JsonValue.Parse(System.String)?text=Parse or JsonArray.@Windows.Data.Json.JsonValue.Parse(System.String)?text=Parse succeeds. If Parse fails, the object state remains intact.
