Re: RPG JSON YAJL

Really? I kind of know what you mean but once you understand them they're pretty easy and well typically documented (something IBM does exceptionally well IMO) and it seems to me better to use what's available natively on the platform. These days I use SQL for pretty much everything so I'm just used to it, I can't remember the last time I wrote a program that used native I/O instead of embedded SQL but it was years ago.

Personally, I tried out the SQL functions when they were first released. I found them counterintuitive, as well as clunky and difficult to use.

...I'm curious as to why you'd use YAJL instead of embedded SQL to create/consume JSON in RPG, which seems to me to be a better option?
