Colon in C# List definition

Question

I have to deserialize an JSON object array that contains a colon in root object name.

Does anyone know if I can achieve this somehow with colon in list definition?

public List<Customers> ngcp:customers { get; set; }

Answer 1

No, the proper way to do this would be to specify the name using an attribute or other method supported by json.net.

[JsonProperty(PropertyName = "ngcp:customers")]
public List<Customers> Customers { get; set; }
