Properties

	Name	Description
	Count	This method is not supported and throws an exception when called. (Inherited from JsonValue.)
	Item[Int32]	This indexer is not supported for this base class and throws an exception. (Inherited from JsonValue.)
	Item[String]	This indexer is not supported for this base class and throws an exception. (Inherited from JsonValue.)
	JsonType	Gets the JsonType that is associated with this JsonPrimitive object. (Overrides JsonValue.JsonType.)

Methods

	Name	Description
	ContainsKey	Throws an InvalidOperationException. (Inherited from JsonValue.)
	Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetHashCode	Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Save(Stream)	Serializes the JsonPrimitive object into text-based JSON. (Overrides JsonValue.Save(Stream).)
	Save(TextWriter)	Serializes the JsonValue CLR type into text-based JSON using a text writer. (Inherited from JsonValue.)
	ToString	Saves (serializes) this JSON CLR type into text-based JSON. (Inherited from JsonValue.)

Remarks

The exact type stored is indicated by the JsonType property. The public constructors in this class allow the creation of JsonPrimitive objects associated with three JsonType objects: Number, String, and Boolean.
