I am trying to use Gson to deserialize a json array, but am currently getting a JsonSyntaxException. The json string was created by a .NET MVC3 web service using JsonResult (meaning, I am not manually creating the json, it is being created by a library which I know to work on several other platforms).

This is the json:

[{"PostID":1,"StudentID":39,"StudentName":"Joe Blow",
"Text":"Test message.","CreateDate":"\/Date(1350178408267)\/",
"ModDate":"\/Date(1350178408267)\/","CommentCount":0}]

This is the code:

public class Post {
   public int PostID;
   public int StudentID;
   public String StudentName;
   public String Text;
   public Date CreateDate;
   public Date ModDate;

   public Post() { }
}

Type listOfPosts = new TypeToken<ArrayList<Post>>(){}.getType();
ArrayList<Post> posts = new Gson().fromJson(json, listOfPosts);

The exception says that the date format is invalid:

com.google.gson.JsonSyntaxException: /Date(1350178408267)/

Anyone know what is going on?
