JSON is a - format to encode object data derived from Javascript, but - now widely used as a data exchange format on the internet. - - The JSON support in Qt provides an easy to use C++ API to parse, - modify and save JSON data. It also contains support for saving this - data in a binary format that is directly mmap'able and very fast to - access. - - More details about the JSON data format can be found at \link json.org - and in \l{http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4627}{RFC-4627}. - - \tableofcontents - - \section1 Overview - - JSON is a format to store structured data. It has 6 basic data types: - - \list - \li bool - \li double - \li string - \li array - \li object - \li null - \endlist - - Any value can be any of the above type. A boolean value is represented by the - strings true or false in JSON. JSON doesn't explicitly specify the valid range - for numbers, but the support in Qt is limited to the valid range and precision of - doubles. A string can be any valid unicode string. An array is a list of values, and an - object is a dictionary of key/value pairs. All keys in an object are strings, and - an object cannot contain any duplicated keys. - - The text representation, of JSON encloses arrays in square brackets ([ ... ]) and - objects in curly brackets ({ ... }). The different entries in arrays and objects - are separated by commas. The separator between keys and values in an object is a - colon (:). - - A simple JSON document encoding a person, its age, address and phone numbers could - look like: - - \code - { - "FirstName": "John", - "LastName": "Doe", - "Age": 43, - "Address": { - "Street": "Downing Street 10", - "City": "London", - "Country": "Great Britain" - }, - "Phone numbers": [ - "+44 1234567", - "+44 2345678" - ] - } - \endcode - - The above example consists of an object with 5 key/value pairs. Two of the values are strings, - one is a number, one is another object and the last one an array. - - A valid JSON document is either an array or an object, so a document always starts - with a square or curly bracket. - - The JSON support in Qt consists of a set of 4 classes. - - - \section1 The JSON Classes - - The JSON support in Qt consists of these classes: - - \annotatedlist json - - All JSON classes are value based, implicitly shared classes. -*/ |
