Re: RPG, retrieving JSON data from a web service

ok... thanks...
I see now what my problem was, and this may be Booth's problem as well
(one of the probs...)

since the root array is not named, you do not need to "point" to it
e.g.: program_tree = yajl_object_find(docNode:name_of_something);

after you have the JSOIN loaded (via the docNode =
yajl_buf_load_tree(...)), you just need to start traversing it with the
YYAJL_ARRAY_LOOP(docNode:i:node)

Nope, you must not start with a named array, you have to pack it into an
object

"myarray" : [...] - is not allowed
{ "myarray" : [...] } - is allowed since the array becomes a part of an
object
[ 1, 2, 3,4 ] - is allowed

wasn't that part of the "standard" changed a while back?

No, JSON arrays do not need to be named.

when I had a JSON string, that started with a JSON array ('[')... I
needed to "name it".
