B4J Question json Parsing

[Declan]

I get the following error when attempting to parse a json file:

The json file structure is:

{
  "device":"{device}",
  "data":"{data}"
}

The json file is received, as can be seen in: "Log(MyStr)"
The error occurs in line: "Dim root As Map = parser.NextObject"

My Code:

Sub AStream_NewData (Buffer() As Byte)
    
    Dim MyStr As String
    MyStr = BytesToString(Buffer,0,Buffer.Length,"UTF-8")

    Log(MyStr)

    Dim parser As JSONParser
    parser.Initialize(MyStr)
    Dim root As Map = parser.NextObject
    Dim data As String = root.Get("data")
    Dim device As String = root.Get("device")
    Log(data)
    Log(device)
    
    ' Close Connection
    Disconnect
    
End Sub

Is this possibly a problem with:
Dim MyStr As String
MyStr = BytesToString(Buffer,0,Buffer.Length,"UTF-8")

 

[Erel]

As you can see you received a full http response.

Why aren't you using OkHttpUtils2 to make the request???

 

[Declan]

I don't make the request.
The data is "Pushed" from the Sigfox cloud via a Callback to my port 17178.
I listen on Port 17178 for the data.

 

[Declan]

I now parse only the json part of the http with:

Sub AStream_NewData (Buffer() As Byte)
    
    Dim MyStr As String
    MyStr = BytesToString(Buffer,0,Buffer.Length,"UTF-8")
    
    MyStr = MyStr.Trim
'
'    Log(MyStr)
    
    Dim strJSON As String
    Dim pos1 As Int
    Dim pos2 As Int
    
    pos1 = MyStr.IndexOf("{")
    pos2 = MyStr.LastIndexOf("}")
    strJSON=MyStr.SubString2(pos1,(pos2 + 1))
    
    Log(pos1)
    Log(pos2)
    
    Log(strJSON)

    Dim parser As JSONParser
    parser.Initialize(MyStr)
    Dim root As Map = parser.NextObject
    Dim data As String = root.Get("data")
    Dim device As String = root.Get("device")
    Log(data)
    Log(device)
    
    ' Close Connection
    Disconnect
    
End Sub

But still receive the error:

[Erel]

parser.Initialize(MyStr) !!!!

parser.Initialize(strJSON) ....

 

[Declan]

Many thanks.
Eish - case of "Cannot see the wood for the trees"
It now looks as if I am not disconnecting or releasing the connection correctly.
Sigfox is not acknowledging that I have received, or actioned, the callback.
Must I have a JobDone function?

 

[Erel]

Better to start a new thread for this, however JobDone is not relevant if you are not using OkHttpUtils2.
