1json 1.2.0 2========== 3 4This extension implements the JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) 5data-interchange format as specified in [0]. 6 7Two functions are implemented: encoding and decoding. The decoding 8is handled by a parser based on JSON_checker[1] by Douglas Crockford. 9 10 11Function overview 12----------------- 13 14 string json_encode ( mixed value ) 15 16json_encode returns a string containing the JSON representation of value. 17value can be any type except a resource. 18 19 mixed json_decode ( string json, [bool assoc] ) 20 21json_decode takes a JSON string and converts it into a PHP variable. 22When assoc is given, and evaluates to TRUE, json_decode() will return 23any objects as associative arrays. 24 25 26Example usage 27------------- 28 29$arr = array("a"=>1,"b"=>2,"c"=>3,"d"=>4,"e"=>5); 30echo json_encode($arr); 31 32---> {"a":1,"b":2,"c":3,"d":4,"e":5} 33 34$json = '{"a":1,"b":2,"c":3,"d":4,"e":5}'; 35var_dump(json_decode($json)); 36 37---> object(stdClass)#1 (5) { 38 ["a"]=> 39 int(1) 40 ["b"]=> 41 int(2) 42 ["c"]=> 43 int(3) 44 ["d"]=> 45 int(4) 46 ["e"]=> 47 int(5) 48 } 49 50$json = '{"a":1,"b":2,"c":3,"d":4,"e":5}'; 51var_dump(json_decode($json, true)); 52 53---> array(5) { 54 ["a"]=> 55 int(1) 56 ["b"]=> 57 int(2) 58 ["c"]=> 59 int(3) 60 ["d"]=> 61 int(4) 62 ["e"]=> 63 int(5) 64 } 65 66 67Authors 68------- 69 70Omar Kilani <omar@php.net> 71 72 73--- 74 75[0] http://www.crockford.com/JSON/draft-jsonorg-json-00.txt 76[1] http://www.crockford.com/JSON/JSON_checker/ 77
