Re: receiving POST encoded in JSON -- WEB400

I had the same problem but a quick scan of the code tells you to include this:

/define YAJL_C_PROTOTYPES <<<<<<INCLUDE THIS LINE
/include yajl_h

I guess it is something that was introduced after the program was written.

I'm trying to compile this simple program but is says the yajl_tree_free() is undefined, is the something I have missed?

H DFTACTGRP(*NO) ACTGRP('KLEMENT') OPTION(*SRCSTMT) H BNDDIR('YAJL') DECEDIT('0.')

/include yajl_h

d docNode s like(yajl_val)
d errmsg s 500a varying inz('')

/free
docNode = yajl_stmf_load_tree( '/sample.json':errmsg);
yajl_tree_free(docNode);
*inlr = *on;
/end-free

Not as stunned as me - because I am using it in production, and now

not doing more thorough research into the options. On the flip side,
it does help me explain some trouble performance bottlenecks.

As it happens, I do have a "use case" where I need to walk through a
JSON with no prior knowledge of its exact content. It involves simply
comparing the JSON (a data model for a context) with the previous
version (stored in a session) to work out what the delta is. I
basically need to know that a node is new, missing or changed to build
the delta with no assumed knowledge of what the nodes are. I expect
the yajl_xxxx_parse will enable me to do this.

Scott,

Thanks for the additional information. I was so stunned by Kevin's
report of performance differences between your service program and
that of Mihael Schmidt; I was looking for an explanation.
Unfortunately, I'm not well versed in either; I haven't had a
requirement to "consume" JSON under IBM i yet. I'm interested in the topic, however.

I agree that "applications" typically know the format of JSON
documents in advance. An API that makes it easy to "find" the content
you're looking for is intuitive in that case.

I've been toying with writing a JavaScript utility that "merges" HTML
templates with JSON objects, where neither the format of the HTML nor
the JSON would be known in advance. I suppose that may have triggered
the idea of a similar use case under IBM i, though that is just an
abstract notion at this point.

I view the topic of JSON to be relevant to the topic of single-page
applications, client-side frameworkd, and possibly server-side
web-service frameworks, which we have been discussing during the past few weeks.
