Re: YAJLGEN and Supposedly Simple JSON

You need an enclosing DS. So precede num_json... with something like"

Dcl-DS decodedJson Qualified;

Then make decodedJson the target of the DATA-INTO.

You can probably drop the document_name option too.

I am assuming that you manually changed the field names since YAJLGEN generates all upper case names unless Scott has changed it recently.

I'm probably missing something super simple because I've used YAJLGEN to aid in creating process of DATA-INTO on some super complicated.

Below is the code generated by YAJLGEN and it looks OK to the eye, but then the compiler obviously doesn't like num_jsonDoc 'outside' of the data structure.

Also below is a sample message used to generate the data structure. Any ideas how to tweak to get this working? Thanks!

==================================================
num_jsonDoc int(10) inz(0);
dcl-ds jsonDoc qualified dim(3);
ID varchar(9) inz('');
LASTUPDATETIME varchar(20) inz('');
end-ds;

%PARSER( 'YAJLINTO'
