Also, set documentation release to "2.0+git". This shows up in the
automatically built HTML documentation.
These changes makes it easier for library users to know that this
version is under development.
Closes GH-14.
- Add a new field position to the json_error_t structure. This is the
position in bytes from the beginning of the input.
- Keep track of line, column and input position in the stream level.
Previously, only line was tracked, and it was in the lexer level, so
this info was not available for UTF-8 decoding errors.
- While at it, refactor tests so that no separate "stripped" tests are
required. json_process is now able to strip whitespace from its
input, and the "valid" and "invalid" test suites now use this to
test both non-stripped and stripped input.
Closes GH-9.
Thanks to Basile Starynkevitch for the suggestion and initial patch.
Thanks to Jonathan Landis and Deron Meranda for showing how this can
be utilized for implementing secure memory operations.
Now, by default, unpacking doesn't check that all array and object
items are accessed. The check can be enabled globally by using the
JSON_STRICT flag (formerly JSON_UNPACK_ONLY), or on a per-value basis
by using the new '!' format character. The '*' format character is
still available to disable the global check on a per-value basis.
Expand the pack/unpack API: json_(un)pack is the simple version with
no error output, json_(un)pack_ex has error output and flags,
json_v(un)pack_ex is a va_list version of json_(un)pack_ex.
Implement unpacking flags:
- JSON_UNPACK_ONLY turns off extra validation, i.e. array and object
unpacking doesn't check that all items are unpacked. This is really
just convenience for not adding '*' after each object and array.
- JSON_VALIDATE_ONLY turns off unpacking, i.e. no varargs are expected
and nothing is unpacked.
This patch adds two new fields to the json_error_t struct: column and
source. It also adds functions to populate json_error_t internally.
The column field is not currently used, but it will be utilized in the
decoder and pack/unpack functions.
After looking at the new code for a few days, I didn't like it
anymore. To prepare for the future, a few fields will be added to the
json_error_t struct later.
This reverts commit 23dd078c8d. Some
adjustments were needed because of newer commits.
All decoding functions now accept a json_error_t** parameter and set
it to point to a heap-allocated json_error_t structure if an error
occurs. The contents of json_error_t are no longer exposed directly, a
few functions to do it have been added instead. If an error occurs,
the user must free the json_error_t value.
This makes it possible to enhance the error reporting facilities in
the future without breaking ABI compatibility with older versions.
This is a backwards incompatible change.
As of now, the parameter is unused, but may be needed in the future.
I'm adding it now so that in the future both API and ABI remain
backwards compatible as long as possible.
This is a backwards incompatible change.
This is to free up bits from the flags parameter of json_dump
functions. I'm pretty sure no-one needs 256 spaces of indentation when
pretty-printing JSON values...
This is a backwards incompatible change.
json_int_t is typedef'd to long long if it's supported, or long
otherwise. There's also some supporting things, like the
JSON_INTEGER_FORMAT macro that expands to the printf() conversion
specifier that corresponds to json_int_t's actual type.
This is a backwards incompatible change.
Added functions are:
* json_string_nocheck()
* json_string_set_nocheck()
* json_object_set_nocheck()
* json_object_set_new_nocheck()
These functions don't check that their string argument is valid UTF-8,
but assume that the user has already performed the check.
- Never append newline to output
- By default, add spaces between array and object items for more
readable output
- Introduce the flag JSON_COMPACT to not add the aforementioned spaces
