Jon,
The OP is on IBMi 7.1, so although DATA-GEN existed in 7.1, I do not thing DATA-INTO was introduced until IBMi 7.2 ...?  :-o
Hence, the need for other tooling like NOXDB ... 
Just saying ...

YAJLINTO for DATA-INTO and YAJLGEN for DATA-GEN both shipped with Scott's YAJL library.

Both work beautifully and are very fast.

Jon,
Then please show me a handler that is already written for consuming any JSON data.
I haven't found any.

You don't have to "write any programs" Birgitta - they are already written.

I'd have a look at the SQL Functions that are available (for

IMHO it is much easier to use this functions in composition with
embeeded SQL than writing any handler programs in composition with
DATA-GEN and DATA-INTO and/or using YAJL.

Subject: RPG and XML or JSON

Hi,

I need help to decide if  the YAJL Open Source JSON Tool is the right
choice for us.

I'm working on a new application that will accept and return data in
JSON format.
The company that will be sending the data already receives it in XML
format from their client and converts it to JSON that it sends to us.
Then, on receiving our JSON response, it will convert it back to XML for the client.
We are currently only used to dealing with XML formatted data only and
have no JSON experience. We have a couple of possibilities that would
enable us to convert the data from JSON to XML and back which would be
a shame to have to do.

We need to weigh up the cost between implementing a solution that we
know how to do and one that we don't but looks better.
How can I go about estimating the time to install and deploy the YAJL
solution? Is it an easy solution to implement?
Is there any way of estimating the effect on the response times if we
were to convert the JSON to XML? That would mean 4 conversions of the
data from XML to JSON and back.

Thanks!
