I don't really understand why you want to keep the original JSON. It is a bit like you don't trust the parsing and/or mapping. Now, the mapping I understand (somewhat).
So I would parse once without mapping, which would give you pure Arrays and Dictionaries that you are guaranteed can be used to reproduce the full original input. Pick the second level in that structure and use it. > On 12 Mar 2015, at 21:47, Mariano Martinez Peck <marianop...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > On Thu, Mar 12, 2015 at 5:32 PM, Sven Van Caekenberghe <s...@stfx.eu> wrote: > Mariano, > > I assume you what this while reading JSON.
