I'm trying to create a simple application through Lesson 6 in N+1 Days of MvvmCross application sample. But its failed in SimpleRestService while converting json Data serialization.
private T Deserialize<T>(string responseBody)
{ // Error is here for deserilizing
var toReturn = _jsonConverter.DeserializeObject<T>(responseBody);
return toReturn;
}
My Json data through Browser:
[{"Desc":"All","Id":"0"},{"Desc":"Assigned","Id":"2"},{"Desc":"In Progress","Id":"3"},{"Desc":"Resolved","Id":"4"},{"Desc":"Closed","Id":"5"},{"Desc":"Hold","Id":"6"},{"Desc":"低","Id":"8"},{"Desc":"Waiting Approval","Id":"9"},{"Desc":"Cancelled","Id":"10"},{"Desc":"Not Resolved","Id":"8"}]
My Json data in application at responsebody:
[{\"Desc\":\"All\",\"Id\":\"0\"},{\"Desc\":\"Assigned\",\"Id\":\"2\"},{\"Desc\":\"In Progress\",\"Id\":\"3\"},{\"Desc\":\"Resolved\",\"Id\":\"4\"},{\"Desc\":\"Closed\",\"Id\":\"5\"},{\"Desc\":\"Hold\",\"Id\":\"6\"},{\"Desc\":\"低\",\"Id\":\"8\"},{\"Desc\":\"Waiting Approval\",\"Id\":\"9\"},{\"Desc\":\"Cancelled\",\"Id\":\"10\"},{\"Desc\":\"Not Resolved\",\"Id\":\"8\"}]
Error Message shows as :
{Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializationException: Cannot deserialize JSON array (i.e. [1,2,3]) into type 'Book.Core.Services.BookSearchResult'. The deserialized type must be an array or implement a collection interface like IEnumerable, ICollection or IList. To force JSON arrays to deserialize add the JsonArrayAttribute to the type.

My Code part: Class Declaration:
public class BookSearchItem
{
public string Desc { get; set; }
public string Id { get; set; }
}
public class BookSearchResult
{
public List<BookSearchItem> items { get; set; }
}
Binding Declaration:
public void StartSearchAsync(string whatFor, Action<BookSearchResult> success, Action<Exception> error)
{
string address = string.Format("http://192.168.0.76/eFACiLiTYPhone/MobileService/WinPhoneWCFService.svc/callstatustesting");
_simpleRestService.MakeRequest<BookSearchResult>(address,"GET", success, error);
