Ok, let me start with the sample code:
import std.stdio;
import std.json;
void main() {
scope(failure) writeln("FaILED!!");
string jsonStr = `{ "name": "1", "type": "r" }`;
auto parsed = parseJSON(jsonStr);
string s = parsed["fail"].str;
writeln(s == "");
writeln(s is null);
writeln(s);
}
Running "rdmd app.d" doesn't produce any output.
Can anyone explain such a behavior???
PS: Running dmd v2.065 on Linux x64.
It's a bug in std.json (you should get a segfault, not no
output at all)
It is fixed now and I'm pretty sure it will be in 2.066
std.json has been improved a lot, but I would still recommend
using http://vibed.org/api/vibe.data.json/ instead
perhaps "bug" is too strong a word, but it was a deficiency
that is now corrected. You will get an exception thrown now and
everything should work how you expect.
Maybe. But still it's not the way I expect, any time you check
for non-existing property you must consider exception, which is
very heavy to deal with in such a situation. I'd rather expect to
get null, whenever I try to fetch non-existing property, and not
an exception.
That's purely my point, and I don't claim to be right in this
way. It's up to Phobos maintainers to decide how to reprent JSON
parsing results.
