I've mainly used JSON because it is a well defined and widely used standard. JSON also contains associative arrays (which currently are not used in madIS).
From what little i've read about Tcl lists, i believe that JSON lists are better for the eye. Compare this: ["this is the first", "second", "and third sentence"] to this: "this is the first" second "and third sentence" In the top example the commas help the eye to distinguish between the values. Nevertheless you could devise an alternative example with a lot of commas inside the strings, which would make JSON lists more difficult to read. So in the end i think it is a matter of taste which of the two is more preferable, and the kind of data that one has to deal with. l. On 26/07/11 10:08, Alexey Pechnikov wrote: > Why JPack? May be Tcl lists will be more useful? The tcl dictionary (also known as associative array) can be stored as list too. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
