NAME

SYNOPSYS

-INCLUDE 'json.sno'
      string = JSON_ENCODE(data)
      data = JSON_DECODE(string)

DESCRIPTION

• STRING
• INTEGER
• REAL
• ARRAY MUST be singly-dimensioned and zero-based.
• TABLE

JSON_DECODE(json_string) accepts a proper subset of JSON with the following limits and omissions:

• arrays must have at least one item.
• \u escapes can only be used for ASCII (00-7F) characters.
• true and false are not accepted.

NOTE!!! JSON is defined to use UTF-8 encoding, but this is not enforced by this library. To exchange binary data with other software which may enforce use of only UTF-8 sequences, the binary strings should be encoded (eg with base64) to ASCII sequences.
