Parameters
- buffer
 Type: array<System.Byte[]
 The input Byte buffer array from which to read.
- offset
 Type: System.Int32
 Starting position from which to read in buffer.
- count
 Type: System.Int32
 Number of bytes that can be read from buffer.
- quotas
 Type: System.Xml.XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas
 The XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas must be set to Max in Silverlight 5 applications.
Return Value

An XmlDictionaryReader that can read JSON.
Exceptions
| Exception | Condition | 
|---|---|
| ArgumentNullException | stream is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic). | 
| ArgumentOutOfRangeException | offset is negative or exceeds the buffer length. | 
| ArgumentOutOfRangeException | count is negative or exceeds the buffer length minus the offset. | 
Remarks
The character encoding (UTF-8, Unicode or Big-Endian Unicode) is auto-detected when the data is read.
Setting XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas to Max in Silverlight 5 applications effectively disables the use of quotas.
