Question

Hi I am getting a response from server which is something like this

{"total":110,"responses":{"13":26,"14":24,"15":40,"16":20}}

I am not able to deserialize it using DataContractJSONSerializer. I have tried various combination for it but no results.
I am using following class for de-serializing:

public class PollResponseRoot
{
    public int total { get; set; }
    public Dictionary<int, int> Responses;

}

but I always get the Response value null. Please let me know where I am going wrong.

Dictionaries are not supported by DataContractJsonSerializer, you could try your luck with Json.Net instead.
