Are you downloading this on a Windows machine, and is the file generated on a non-Windows machine? I have added -J-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 to almost the end of my netbeans_default_options in netbeans.conf. The end option is for bigger fonts. The error shows up as an unrecognizable (at least to me) character at the beginning of the file. Delete that character and the file validates. . . . just my two cents /mde/ signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
RE: [EXT] RE: Json validation
Here is your JSON file pasted straight into Netbeans, with some garbage added to show you error checking: [cid:image002.png@01D4F461.A930F4F0] From: Thomson, Duncan Sent: Tuesday, April 16, 2019 2:32 PM To: Greenberg, Gary ; wadechand...@apache.org Cc: users@netbeans.apache.org Subject: RE: [EXT] RE: Json validation You need to be clear whether you are talking about checking whether some text is legal JSON syntax, versus checking whether that text conforms to a JSON schema. The Netbeans editor will already do the former on text in a .json file, but I think you are asking for the latter. It’s important to use the terminology correctly to avoid confusion.

I know that Netbeans has a feature to validate XML files and I used it extensively when XML was main method to define requests and responses in REST API. Nowadays JSON almost completely replaced XML in that role. Is there a plugin or something to validate JSON or help to check it for errors? I do have pretty big JSON file which somewhere contain an error, but cannot find it easily.
