If you need to use YAJL then the only easy way I can think of to do this is to use YAJLINTO with DATA-INTO to bring the json into a DS, then use YAJLGEN with DATA-GEN to recreate the json.

I do not believe that the YAJL library offers an update option, which is to be expected given that json is a transitory communication vehicle. The provider is apparently us being lazy and wants you to do the work for them <grin>

Hi All,

We are just starting a new project where we are retrieving details in json.

We are using Scott's YAJLR4

There are times where we need to send back updates.

Unfortunately, the provider of this data wants the entire json string returned with any changes.

The json we retrieve is about 400 nodes and we only want to change one or two values.

I can see there are procedures to process the json and retrieve an individual node's value but there does not appear to be any options to update a value for a specific node.

If this is the case we will have to define the entire data structure to handle the entire json document but was hoping there may be another option ?

Any comments or suggestions appreciated.

Thanks

Don
