Re: RPG, retrieving JSON data from a web service

Booth,

You said you were using HTTPAPI to retrieve the JSON, correct? If
you've done that, there's nothing different after that to parse the
JSON after it's retrieved with HTTPAPI or similar utility such as my
GETURI application.

I admit, it shouldn't be this hard as well. And it isn't. Loading
the JSON you were doing before seemed to be the stumbling block, so
there was something simple that we were missing.

Here's a series of articles I wrote using YAJL as the example parsing
JSON. At the bottom are links to others in the series.

are there a couple of examples of other programmer's versions of using Scott
Klement's YAGL library to retrieve JSON data? I am missing some important
aspect. Whether it is a typo, a total mess-up, or what I do not know. I
am thinking that perhaps if I see how others have used his hard work then I
will have it working too.

I can retrieve the data with javascript in a non-iSeries environment so I am
presuming I have a stupid tucked away in there and am being blind to it.
