Re: UTF-8 Equivalent to yajl_buf_load_tree() ?

I'm not sure there's an option for that. I always use GETURI to
retrieve the data and use yajl_stmf_load_tree() to load the data into
memory.

It looks to be simple enough to add an option for EBCDIC data or not
in yajl_buf_load_tree().

If you compare yajl_buf_load_tree() with yajl_stdin_load_tree() you
can see that the conversion to UTF-8 in yajl_buf_load_tree() is done
all the time assuming it's EBCDIC data.

A simple addition of a parameter to tell it if it's UTF-8 and if it's
on, don't do the conversion to UTF-8. Or, make a new subprocedure
like yajl_buf_load_tree_utf8() that is a copy of yajl_buf_load_tree()
but simply bypasses the conversion.

For reasons of speed I'm attempting to keep everything in my web services in UTF-8.

I used YAJL to build the request packet in UTF-8 and send it. I receive the response (via HTTPAPI) in UTF-8 and not need to load the YAJL tree and parse the response.

But yajl_buf_load_tree() is defined as requiring EBCDIC input and I can't find a UTF-8 equivalent.

Since everything else in YALJ is UTF-8 oriented this seems a little odd.

Am I missing something obvious here?
