How to deserialize JSON string

Question

I have found lots of online tutorials but all of them are deserializing JSON strings into objects or lists of objects.

I just have a web service which returns either 1 or 0 as JSON.

So it prints something like:

""\"0\""

Or:

""\"1\""

How can I deserialize a simple JSON like that into a string?

So you have a string input that contains "0" or "1" and you want a string result that contains "0" or "1" depending on the input? — dtb

Technically this is not valid JSON according to the RFC spec. — ChaosPandion

No I have a JSON like this: ""\"0\"" or ""\"1\"". Sorry for confusion. — Richard Knop

@ChaosPandion So you think the web service should just return 1 or 0 as a string? Not encoded as JSON? — Richard Knop

@Richard Knop: the web service should return a JSON Object or a JSON Array. — dtb

According to the RFC4627 a valid JSON string is defined as either a JSON object or a JSON array. Your web service should return something similar to this.

{ "Result": 0 }
