std::json::Value

This structure is a universal designation for any possible JSON value.

makeBoolean, makeInteger, makeReal, makeString, makeArray, makeObject

These methods allow you to set the value of a given structure in JSON format using the desired type and desired value.

Example:

std::json::Value foo;
foo.makeBoolean(true);

std::json::Value bow;
bow.makeInteger(1000);

pointer

Returns a pointer for iteration (it can be useful if it is an object or an array).

Example:

std::string buffer = "{\"foo\": 100, \"bow\": 200}"
std::json::Value test = std::json::parse(buffer);

std::json::Value* elements = test.pointer(); // Pointer with access to all elements by index

std::println("List of existing elements:");
for (usize i=0; i<test.length; i++) std::println("\t", elements[i].name);

as<TYPE>

This method allows you to get the desired value from the JSON value in the type you need.

Supported types:

• char, uchar;
• short, ushort;
• int, uint;
• long, ulong;
• cent, ucent;
• half, bhalf;
• float, double, real;
• char*, std::cstring, std::string.

NOTE: if you are using std::string, it makes new allocation.

indexOf

If the value is an object, it returns the index of the variable with the specified name in the pointer (if not found, it returns -1).

If the value is not an object, it returns -1.

contains

This works like indexOf, but instead of an index it returns true/false (i.e. whether a variable with the same name has been found or not).

get

Returns the JSON value of a variable with the specified name.

Example:

std::string buffer = "{\"foo\": 100, \"bow\": 200}"
std::json::Value test = std::json::parse(buffer);

std::println("foo: ", test.get("foo").as<int>(), ", bow: ", test.get("bow").as<int>());

set

Sets the JSON value to a variable. If there is no variable with that name, it creates a new one.

setBoolean, setShort, setInteger, setLong, setDouble, setArray, setObject

It works as a set, but instead of std::json::Value accepts the usual value types.

isVariable

Determines whether this value is a variable.

toString

Returns the value in the string interpretation.

std::json::parse

Parses the specified string, returning a JSON object.
