Re: YAJL in Event Processing Mode

When I first started teaching/using YAJL (many years ago now) I
discussed both the event-based and tree-based approaches. I created
"simplified" wrappers for each in YAJLR4 -- but, honestly, I never got
around to testing the event-based ones... so the code there is
completely untested.

Why? Because the tree-style ones were so much easier to learn, use and
teach. I quickly found this was the only option people were really
interested in. The event-based (which is more like SAX) never sparked
much interest.

As Jon said, I did use the event-based approach for the YAJLINTO program
(the DATA-INTO parser). I didn't use my "simplified wrappers", though -
I called the regular YAJL C routines directly. So that part definitely
works, and you can use the code in YAJLINTO as an example.

But, I'm wondering why you wouldn't use the tree-based (or
DATA-INTO/DATA-GEN) options? These are widely used and pretty much
everyone has agreed that it's easier... so, why not?

Does anyone know of an example of using Scott Klement's YAJL in an event

Thanks.
