How to convert unserialize php object in .NET C#

Question

I recently got a project which require communication between php and .Net websites.

The developer form php didnt provide much doc about their code, only a client site library and a small piece of sample code.

// initialize the form parameters from the data provided in the url
$paramDataLen = (int) $_GET['paramdatalen'];
$paramData = base64_decode($_GET['paramdata']);
$paramData = gzuncompress($paramData, $paramDataLen);
$paramArray = unserialize($paramData);

How can i convert code above into C# and use in .NET?

I saw post of this How to unserialize PHP Serialized array/variable/class and return suitable object in C#, however since i have no php experience before, would be good if some one can point me a right direction to do this, whith few more details about how a .net guy dealing with php

I am finding a hard time in converting php code into C# there is another function which i am scraching my head.

mcrypt_decrypt(MCRYPT_BLOWFISH, $config['DATAAPISECRETKEY'], $result, MCRYPT_MODE_CBC, $encryptedData['iv']);

is there any equivalent code/lib available in c#?

You find all PHP functions documented in the PHP manual: php.net/docs — hakre

D.J. would be cool if you leave some notes in form of an answer how you tweaked / solved it, so you have documented this and others can find it. — hakre

You can transport your object as json.

To facilitate, use Json.NET library.
