But if you don't need interoperability, you wouldn't need to write a
parser, since LC includes a good one built into the engine.
What did I miss?
The fact that Livecode's support for JSON is, hmmm, mediocre at best ??
The parser "built-in" seems to work fine in the IDE, but not on the server :
<?lc
set the errormode to inline
put the version
put "{'name':'asdf'}" into t
replace "'" with quote in t
put JSONtoarray(t) into tA
put the keys of tA
fails with -
file "/home/alextwee/public_html/rampuk/tJSON.lc"
row 7, col 5: Function: error in function handler (JSONtoarray)
row 7, col 5: put: error in expression
(there's no mention of any platform restricitons in the dictionary).
I tried copying in the sample ode for wrapping JSONToArray around
mergJSONDecode,
which then fails with "error in function handler mergJSONDecode.
(I must admit I encountered this a while ago, figured it was probably a
temporary issue
so I replaced JSON by LSON, and forgot all about it.) This discussion prompted
me to re-try it.
I can't believe this problem isn't causing widespread problems, so it's probably
something specific about me, or my on-rev account. If anyone has suggestions,
I'll
try them; if not, I'll put it as a bug report into QCC see what happens.
Alex.
