Re: receiving POST encoded in JSON

Hello, Raul.

Here's an article I put together on reading in large data using QtmhRdStin.


http://www.fieldexit.com/forum/display?threadid=142

You'll probably want to do something similar as the data could be varying
in size.

The parts you'll want to know are:

1. Read the CONTENT_LENGTH header to know how big the data will be.
2. Allocate the size from step using a pointer and %alloc
3. Read in the data using QtmhRdStin and save it to a stream file.

The samples in the link use the eRPG SDK for some things, as well as some
of our home grown IFS subprocedures, but it should give you an idea of how
to do it (or, at least one way).

We are planing to wor with a company that will send us data as POST in
json format.
CGIDEV seems to ignore this data. With another company I used
QtmhRdStin, but I wonder if there is an easier way to read it.

I installed YAJL from Scot's site, but it seems that is great to create
json and to parse it, but I did not find how to receive it.

According to this: http://www.w3.org/TR/html-json-forms/ browsers will
be able to send json encode data.

Here is part of the document they send me.
