I’m looking for a way to render a C# class object to javascript. For instance this class definition:

public class Foo
{ 
   public string Bar1 { get; set; }
   public string Bar2 { get; set; }
}

should render (an object of class Foo with values filled) as:

foo: 
{
    bar1: 'bar1value',
    bar2: 'bar2value'
}

I know my way around reflection, but before reinventing the wheel all over again I was wondering if there are any libraries already doing these kind of things.

    This might do what you want: http://json.codeplex.com/

    There’s an example as well: http://james.newtonking.com/projects/json/help/

    If I recall, JSON demands quotes for key names (though probably tolerates a lack thereof), but I wasn’t sure about Javascript, so I tested it with the following HTML, which seems to be usable in Chrome, IE, and Firefox. 

    <html>
<body>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        o = { "a":1, "b":2 };
        alert(o.a +" " +o.b) ; 
    </script>
</body>
</html>

    Hopefully, you’ll be able to use such syntax directly (RFC 4627 says that JSON is a subset of Javascript).
