They don't have to be - JSON uses name-value pairs in dictionaries precisely because they aren't sorted. However, it looks like you matched the order that you listed in the qapi-schema.json file, which is as good as any (even if it differs from the random hash ordering demonstrated in your example below). Or are you asking how macaddr strings within multicast-table are sorted (JSON arrays DO convey ordering relations), rather than how the name-value pairs are (not) sorted in the overall array entry dictionary? -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
